We use the following windows-based screen capture programs:
PictureEze from Application Techniques in Pepperell, MA. (508)433-5201. It's
an excellent program, very easy to use, but doesn't capture the cursor/mouse.
Collage Complete from Inner Media in Hollis, NH (603) 465-2696. It's
relatively easy to use and does capture the cursor.
HiJaak Pro version 2.0 from Inset Systems in Brookfield, CT. (203)740-2400. I
find this more difficult to use, but it has more versatility than the others.
It's an excellent conversion program for converting almost any graphic file
from one type to another.
For ease of use, I vote for PictureEze (if you don't need the cursor).
Good luck.
