Eolas seeks to stop Microsoft IE distribution
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Eolas Technologies, the company which has successfully sued Microsoft for using its patented technology in the Internet Explorer browser, is now asking the U.S. District Court in Chicago to permanently enjoin Microsoft from distribution of the browser.
If granted, the injunction would stop Microsoft from shipping any version of Internet Explorer or the Windows operating system which includes the patented technology, explained Richard Martinez of Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi, the firm representing Eolas. Martinez said the injunction would not prevent Microsoft from shipping versions of those products which had been stripped of the patented technology.
