Microsoft was convicted of anti-competitive behaviour in 2004, and ordered to
pay a €497m fine. The EU had demanded that the company provide better
interoperability between its software and competing products.
The software giant has failed to provide adequate information about its
products to allow for third-party interoperability, the EU alleges.
Microsoft was also forced to release a version of its operating system
stripped of Windows Media Player. The company has complied with this order,
although sales of the version without Media Player are believed to be
practically non-existent.
Microsoft has insisted that it has complied with the order and feels that any
fine would be unjustified.
