A clear majority of internet users are against Microsoft making its Live Search product the default search box in the new version of its Internet Explorer browser IE 7.
888 respondents answered an iTWire poll taken over 25 hours asking the
question: "Should Microsoft be allowed to make its search engine the
default in IE 7?" Of the respondents, 502 (56.5%) answered No, while
387 (43.5%) answered Yes.
Recently, Google has issued a complaint to The Department of Justice in
the US and the European Commission about Microsoft's intention to
bundle its own search product as the default search box in its browser
which has 85% market share. Google's belief that Microsoft is using its
near monopoly in the browser market to gain an unfair market advantage
in the search engine space obviously has some sympathy in the user
community. Whether the regulators, which have both crossed swords with
Microsoft in the past, will see it that way is a different matter.
