EU forces Microsoft to offer users a choice of web browser

There has been a resolution to the Internet Explorer antitrust case against Microsoft. Microsoft will now offer a choice to Windows users for their web browser. This "Choice Screen" will give Windows users more options than just internet explorer, which will open up competition in the web browser market for Europe.

The "Choice Screen" will offer 12 of the most widely used Web browsers that run under Windows. The choice screen initially shows the five most widely used browsers, in random order: IE, Firefox, Google's Chrome, Apple's Safari, and Opera. There is also a horizontal scroll bar that will reveal other options as well--which are essentially up-start browsers that are getting a huge opportunity handed to them as a result of this anti-trust resolution.

Here is the "Choice Screen" as seen in Windows explorer panel:
