Microsoft agrees to antitrust tweaks of XP | |

Microsoft has agreed to make modest changes to Windows XP in response to criticism from an antitrust compliance committee. In a court filing on Wednesday, the U.S. Justice Department and some states charged that Web-related resources, such as saved HTML files, continued to be denoted by an Internet Explorer icon, even when it was not the default browser. Also, the filing said, disabling Internet Explorer in XP does not automatically delete user-created shortcuts pointing at the application. Microsoft said in the same filing--which was jointly submitted to U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly--that it will modify XP to respond to those concerns. | ||

"Also, the filing said, disabling Internet Explorer in XP does not automatically delete user-created shortcuts pointing at the application."
Why should it? If I, the user, manually create a shortcut to IE, I don't want Windows to go around deleting it, I can delete it myself, thank you very much. Windows should NEVER automatically delete things that the user explicitly made. |
