Conventional wisdom (and the Electronic Frontier Foundation) says that an unauthorized screenshot is an infringement. That said, the use of screenshots rarely triggers a complaint because either: (1) the copyright owners don’t want to complain about something that promotes their company -- for example, an online tutorial about using Microsoft Word, or a book about starting an eBay business, or (2) the copyright owners believe the use is likely to be excused as a fair use. Although issues don’t often arise, occasionally copyright owners do complain -- for example, Apple complained about prerelease screenshots of the iPhone. Some sites place limits on your use of screenshots in their user agreements.
