Are you guys missing a point here?
"Korean antitrust regulators began investigating Microsoft after a local
Internet portal filed a complaint in 2001. Microsoft reached a $30 million
settlement with that company in November 2005"
I might be wrong, but I thought the same thing happened with the E.U.?
- another company complained (to the regulator)
- regulator started to investigate the complaint
- MS paid off the company making the complaint
- regulator (swine!) carried on investigating!
That's not a very nice thing to happen to those nice chaps in Redmond after
they've paid out all that money now, is it? Have you guys no heart?;-)
