Google voices Microsoft browser-grab concern

Google voices Microsoft browser-grab concern:


The next release of Internet Explorer continues to worry Google, despite having no plans to develop a competing browser, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said on Wednesday.
Microsoft is currently beta testing IE7, which contains a search box with a drop-down menu which by default uses the company's search engine. Google executives have complained about this, and Schmidt reiterated their concern on Wednesday.
"We want to make sure that the use of the power of Windows is done in a correct and legally appropriate way," Schmidt said in a question-and-answer session with financial analysts and investors.
