Microsoft "Oops you caught me"
Well shame on me, I won't do it again wink. Just was reading comments on Microsoft ending WordPad and someone mentioned 'as long as a browser is bundled'. Heh how times change.
For those that don't know Microsoft had an anti trust suit or something like that due to IE being a part of the OS. Though to be fair it's pretty hard to get your preferred browser without one to use, but probably not good to be too integrated with the OS rather than an optional component. Wonder how close Bing is to that these days, new computer at work is constantly showing Bing in the start menu like this is my computer not your fucking search results.
