What is the big deal?
Was MS preventing anyone from installing Yahoo/AOL/whatever messenger? They certainly didn't stop me from installing Yahoo's chat programs. It's time for the whinners to get a grip, it's a monopoly when you can't install something other than the MS chat program, not when Windows has MS chat pre-installed and you may still install the program of your choice.

If I would see anything to complain about it is that it is installed at all, not because it is a monopoly. Although it generally costs more I build my own computers so that I don't have the google or yahoo toolbar and any other crapware that the computer vendors have been paid to install on the computer that I purchased. It's surprising how much faster a computer boots when it doesn't carry all of that google/yahoo baggage!
