![]() Microsoft violated EU antitrust rules: "European Commission experts have concluded that U.S. software giant Microsoft violated EU antitrust rules, but their proposed remedies need refining to withstand court scrutiny, sources familiar with the case said. The experts have proposed two major requirements--making Microsoft share more proprietary information with its rivals and uncoupling its Media Player audiovisual software from the ubiquitous Windows operating system, sources told Reuters. Both suggested remedies would go beyond changes agreed with the U.S. Justice Department last year after courts found Microsoft had abused its Windows monopoly."
