Windows 7...Turn off IE!

Microsoft says that it will only take a single check box in the next version of Windows is giving users the ability to "turn off" Microsoft's own Internet Explorer browser.

All this effort is to make European antitrust regulators happy.
Microsoft lost a long-running battle with EU antitrust regulators in 2007 over the way it bundled media player software into the Windows operating system.
Opera Software claimed the practice of bundling software gives Microsoft's browser an unfair advantage.

Windows 7 isn't expected to reach consumers until next year.
More than a million people are already testing early versions.
