Microsoft calls Google's complaint baseless


Google

Microsoft Corp. Chief Executive Steve Ballmer has hit back at Goggle , after the search giant filed a complaint with the Department of Justice in December, claiming a feature built into Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system that allows users to search a computer's hard drive did not leave room for competition from other desktop search applications.



Steve Ballmer said a complaint lodged by Google Inc. was "baseless" as the software company was complying with a 2002 antitrust settlement."We continue to comply with the consent decree we signed with the U.S. government in recognition to the findings around our position with Windows," Ballmer said at the Detroit Economic Club.

"We think all claims to the contrary are baseless," said Ballmer, a Detroit native, in response to a question from the audience following his speech to the group.
