Google has received setback in its quest to have Microsoft censured by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and European Commission for making Windows Live Search the default search box in the upcoming Internet Explorer 7 browser. The DOJ has issued a submission to the US District Court of Columbia which indicates that the agency doesn't have a problem with Microsoft's search box in IE 7.

While Microsoft and Yahoo have been doing their darndest to hit Google where it hurts in the online search engine ad space, Google has thrown out a chilling warning to Microsoft with the latest version of its Google Desktop product, version 4. To be frank, it has features that cut deep into Microsoft's territory.
Like previous versions of its product, Google Desktop 4 has the ability
to index everything on your computer's hard disk from your Microsoft
Office files to your instant message chats and Sunday picnic snapshots.
And it allows you to retrieve them easily and quickly by a simple
search. This is something Microsoft does not have.
However, with the latest version, you get a very intuitive and useful
customisable sidebar that sits cleanly on your desktop, which allows
you display such things as newsfeeds, your latest emails, a scratchpad,
maps, weather forecasts, favourite webpages, a system monitor, a WiFi
indicator and other little useful and not so useful applications that
Google refers to simply as Gadgets.

The news that Yahoo has weighed into the argument between Microsoft and Google over the bundling of Windows Live search as the default search engine with the upcoming Internet Explorer 7 browser is amusing. The source of amusement is not so much that the distant number two player in the search space is ganging up with the even more distant number three player. It's just that their arguments are so obviously ludicrous.

Google has fired off a double barrelled antitrust-like complaint to both the US Justice Deoartment and the European Commission (EC) over Microsoft making MSN Search the default search engine in the new version of its dominant Internet Explorer browser, IE7. Internet Explorer currently has 85% market share, a share that is slowly being eroded by Mozilla Firefox and, to a lesser extent Opera from Opera Software.
