Microsoft Says Moved Quickly to Address EU Browser Worry

BRUSSELS--U.S. software giant Microsoft Inc. (MSFT) said Wednesday that it has moved quickly to address an internet browser issue that has triggered an antitrust charge by European Union regulators and it is making sure it won't happen again.

We "moved quickly to address this problem as soon as we became aware of it. Although this was the result of a technical error, we take responsibility for what happened," Microsoft said in a statement. "We sincerely apologize for this mistake and will continue to cooperate fully with the Commission," it added.

The European Commission announced earlier Wednesday that it has sent a formal complaint to Microsoft for failing to meet an earlier promise to offer users a choice of different web browsers.
