Brussels - According to a report by IDG, the EuropeanCommission is looking into a number of complaints against the bundling of products into Microsoft's Windows Vista -- the software giant's first operating system using protocols set down by antitrust decisions in the EU and U.S. "Several companies have expressed concerns to the European Commission related to Windows Vista," Commission spokesman Jonathan Todd told IDG. Todd said the Commission has not opened a formal investigation because it has not received a formal complaint, but added that it was "monitoring" the situation. Vista is scheduled to ship by year's end.
