microsoft-vs-google1Browser brothers are up against Microsoft monopoly over Internet browsers. Google is the latest to join the fight confirming its participation with EU in the antitrust case against Microsoft regarding Internet Explorer.  The case was registered by EU after web browser developer, Opera filed a formal complaint against Microsoft. Following the suit, Mozilla the creator of famous Firefox browser also joined the fight against Microsoft. 

EU had filed a case in January, 2009, against Microsoft accusing the company for dispensing competition by adding Internet Explorer with the Windows package. Google’s retaliation is based on the assessment that IE provided with Microsoft Operating System Windows dominates the market. This gives IE an unfair advantage, discouraging innovation of new users. Earlier in 2006, Google went against Microsot complaining that Microsoft is driving users to its search service unfairly using IE.
