Actually, Microsoft's market penetration started when they began to include IE 3.0 on Windows 95, not when Microsoft came out with IE 4.0 as they like everyone to believe.

Anyway, as I said before, Microsoft's failure in killing off Netscape is not evidence that they didn't try. Microsoft's internal emails, discussions with other companies, and attempts to divide the market with Netscape however, is evidence that they did try.

As for crimes, attempting to divide a market with a competitor is an automatic violation of Sherman. So unless Microsoft can show some evidence that the June 21 1995 meeting wasn't an attempt to divide the market, then they've already lost the case.
