==========
In the court filing planned Monday, the government is expected to
center its claims around a Sherman Act Section 2 charge of "monopoly
maintenance," in which Microsoft undertook illegal acts to protect
its dominance of operating software. A second Section 2 charge will
allege attempted monopolization of Internet software. A third set of
charges, under Section 1 of the act, cites some otherwise-common
business practices, such as exclusive contracts, that the government
will allege are illegal because Microsoft has a monopoly.
