South Korea court rejects claims against Microsoft

Digito.com and Sanview Technology Inc. had alleged that Microsoft's bundling of its instant messenger and Windows Media Services programs with its operating system had caused them monetary damage.

The Seoul District Court, however, rejected the claims, citing lack of proof. Seoul-based Digito.com had sought 30 billion won ($23.9 million) in damages, while Sanview Technology, which has offices in Seoul and San Jose, California, had sought 10 billion won.

In its decision, the court ruled that though the bundling violated South Korea's fair trade rules, the companies could not blame Microsoft for their losses.
