[SOLVED] Licensing material

I have made some userscripts and firefox extensions. I want people not to distribute my material with their names. But I know nothing about licensing. I have found this link:
http://creativecommons.org/choose/results-one?license_code=by-nc-nd&jurisdiction=us&version=3.0&lang=en
Can someone teach me some basics?
Answer #1
Creative Commons explicitly states that they do not recommend people use the Creative Commons licenses on software.
I would recommend one of the MIT, BSD or Apache licenses (they are all quite similar, basically people are free to reuse your code, as long as they give you credit, but dont claim to be associated or endorsed by you without your permission)
You might also like the GPL license, which requires that anyone who uses your code *must* license it under the GPL, which for firefox plugins etc should be ok, but for actual compiled programs can cause problems, due to the way they define ‘use’.
For my programs, I use the 3-clause BSD license, which states that

<program name>

To break this down:
The copyright notice asserts that you own the source code.
the first bullet point states that anyone reproducing the source code must leave the copyright notice and license alone
the next bullet point states that anyone reproducing the program itself must include the license and copyright notice in the documentation
the third bullet point is fairly self explanatory
the block of text at the bottom is a warranty disclaimer, and states that you are not responsible for any damage that might happen if people use this software

Thank you very much. Can I just include it or do I have to register anywhere?

Nope, you just have to include the license in your documentation, and ideally as a comment at the top of every source code file

Thank you very much.
