Microsoft Bows to Eolas, Revamps IE

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the here-ya-go dept.

Tenacious Dee writes "The patent quarrel between Microsoft and Eolas takes a strange turn with an announcement from Redmond that the Internet Explorer browser will be modified to change the way ActiveX controls are handled. A Microsoft white paper details the behavior change."

    I really hate MS in that sense. They are just stubborn money holders. I hate them not because they produce buggy software, and dictate every single user to use their software, but their ruining the internet where nobody can do anything about it. I still get spams and worms due to their vulnerable software, and I still encounter buggy web pages due to their incompatible browser's wrong impression on web developers. I wish everyone is more aware of this situation and change the way things go.
