Microsoft cited Netscape Navigator, the browser that was discontinued by AOL LLC last Friday, as an example of why most provisions of the 2002 antitrust settlement should be retired. The Microsoft memorandum (download PDF) was filed in federal court on the same day AOL announced plans to discontinue development of Netscape as of Feb. 1.
Microsoft also accused the states that want a federal judge to extend her antitrust oversight of shooting legal blanks, according to court filings made a week ago.
