I was under the impression that to use non-free libraries, they had to 
be part of the OS. Any image libraries that are on Windows machines by 
default are likely to be part of the web browser, as people who have 
tried to uninstall the web browser from Windows have found that they 
lose a lot of functionality such as displaying images.
