The European Union has indicated that they are within weeks of deciding if Microsoft is sufficiently complying with their anti-trust amendments. If they find Microsoft has not complied to their satisfaction, then they will decide what action they will take to ensure compliance. They (the EU) could conceivably fine Microsoft up to 5 million dollars a day until Microsoft comply. Most of the problems are related to Microsoft’s restrictive and expensive solution to making their server protocols available to 3rd parties. Update: Eweek has done a far more detailed article on the subject.
