Microsoft has to pay a record fine to European Union in rate of 1.4bn dollars for after it failed to comply with a 2004 ruling that it abused its dominant market position.
The ruling said that Microsoft was guilty of not providing key code to rival software makers.
EU regulators said the firm was the first to break an EU anti-trust ruling.
The fines come on top of earlier fines of 280m euros imposed in July 2006, and of 497m euros in March 2004. I think the Microsoft should not be fined, they are a unique company and have right to be the no.1.
