Microsoft heading for more EU fines

[Geoff]

The European Commission has warned Microsoft that it could face further fines for failing to comply with its anti-trust rulings.

 

Brussels criticised the software giant for not changing its behaviour since it was fined 497m euros (£331m) in 2004.

 

In an escalation of its long-running battle with the US firm, Brussels said Microsoft had been seeking unreasonable prices from competitors for key data.

 

In response, Microsoft said the threat of further fines was unreasonable.
