maybe there is something I haven't seen where Microsoft actually told Compaq it would lose its Windows license had it tried to remove IE). Forcing them to keep the icon on the desk top does not, imho, violate the Consent Decree. I'm confused. If Microsoft threatened Compaq with loss of license for actually removing IE, the program, it would violate the consent decree, but threatening them with loss of license for removing the desktop icon is OK? This sounds like positively Microsoftian logic to me, but I'm not a lawyer, and in-house counsel doesn't want to talk to me about this stuff anymore. Cheers, Dan.
