  I received this email from the DOJ:
  
  >Thank you for your recent e-mail regarding the Microsoft Corporation. 
  >Currently the Antitrust Division is conducting investigations into several
  >computer markets, including web browser products, operating systems,
  >and streaming technology.

  I do hope that those of you who can, will contact the DOJ of any concerns
  you have with monopolies and business practices, not just Internet Explorer.
