With a U.S. appeals court still reviewing a landmark antitrust ruling against Microsoft, the software giant's rivals on Thursday accused it of plotting a scheme to monopolize the Internet.
Procomp, a group funded by Microsoft's competitors, charged Microsoft with planning to use its new Windows XP operating system and .Net strategy to extend its monopoly. The group said Microsoft plans to use its dominant Windows operating system and Internet Explorer browser to force consumers to adopt its new .Net Internet platform.
