    Google Expresses Concerns Over New Microsoft Browser

    May 1 (Bloomberg) -- Google Inc., the most-used Internet search engine, expressed concerns to the European Commission over Microsoft Corp.'s new Internet browser, which directs Web surfers to Microsoft's search site.

    Google raised the concern as part of a European Commission investigation into Vista, the next version of Microsoft's Windows operating system, Steve Langdon, a spokesman for Mountain View, California-based Google, said today in an interview.

    ``In those discussions, we have expressed our concerns that Microsoft's approach to setting search defaults in IE 7.0 benefits Microsoft while taking away choice from users,'' Langdon said.

    Microsoft is ``fully committed'' to supporting search-engine options in Internet explorer and will ensure users can easily choose from a very long list, Microsoft spokeswoman Stacy Drake McCredy said in an e-mailed statement.

    The tussle highlights Google's concern that Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft may be able to gain Internet traffic by directing people to its own search engine. Microsoft handled 11 percent of U.S. searches in March, compared with Google's 49 percent, according to market research Nielsen//NetRatings.

    Shares of Google fell $19.04, or 4.6 percent, to $398.90 at 4 p.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market composite trading. They have fallen 3.8 percent this year. Microsoft shares rose 14 cents to $24.29 and have fallen 7.1 percent this year.

    Google brought up the concerns over Internet Explorer with the U.S. Justice Department and European Commission, the New York Times reported today.
    I am looking forward to MSN's PPC engine getting more traffic. I am expecting waay less hitbot hits from them since the traffic will primarily come from the desktops of relative web newbs. Their traffic will be like a combination of AOL'ers and googlers. That's a nice combo if you ask me.

    I can't wait for the deployment of Vista!
    I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

    Webair, bitches.

        A big problem is MSN adcenter doesn't allow adult sites from what I understand

          MSN's ad service isn't that great. I had a lengthy talk with them during SES and to say it mildly, things will not get better until Mid-summer.

                I use MASN adcenter (beta ), their traffic convert better than google adwords. I have not checked about adult ads.

                Its good to have a stiff competition to google adwords, competition is always good for us advertisers

                  same thing here, but it might be because I have the google toolbar installed (even though it's hidden)

                    I don't get it at all.... the search slot is reconfigurable by the hardware maker who bundles in the OS. What are they crying about? If they want it, they can pay for the spot. Hell, you don't see MS crying about FF's automatic inclusion of the google search box to the right of the address bar in FF

                      Here is from their ToS

                      Content Guidelines
                      Adult/Sexual Content
                      MSN adCenter will not accept advertising on adult keywords.
                      Advertisements and associated landing pages may not contain sexually explicit content.
                      Advertising will not be accepted for sites that feature predominantly adult content.
                      Adult content, if any, within otherwise non-adult sites, must be clearly segregated from other content.

                        Maybe MSN doesn't feel threatened by firefox, but Google certainly does of Vista

                              nope, if you go into the IE7 options, you will see you can choose what search engine you want to be used for that little box

                              i don't have the google toolbar installed anymore because of that handy little box

                                  I used Google and Yahoo (overture,goto) for year's and was told that msn traffic will convert more buisness to buisness then anything else...
                                  msn should get more traffic than yahoo and google just because msn is windows...

                                      Yeah it sucks now. You can be number 1 for certain keywords and still get a traffic that trickles slower than a man pissing with prostate problems.

                                      But, as you said, mid summer it should be good. By next year it will be incredible. Competition is good.

                                          Actually I was referring more towards their editorial staff. They never reply to emails, they reject without reasons, and there's no appeal process. From what I was told, they have a serious staff shortage that they cannot handle the volume of current inquiries and need to triple their staff just to handle the people in beta as it is.

From what I was told, they have a serious staff shortage that they cannot handle the volume of current inquiries and need to triple their staff just to handle the people in beta as it is.

                                                        True, but Macs are turning into windows vehicles. Vista will be more popular on Macs than OS X within 2 years.

                                                              As much as I hate M$, I agree this will be a good thing for adult and the internet as well. Sure, its kinda manipulative, but Google needs competition and I'm willing to sacrafice the right rights of some AOLers for it.
