Norwegian Opera Software company said on Wednesday that as Microsoft began to allow European users to choose to install their own browsers, Opera downloads soared. "Since Microsoft started pushing away the browser selection screen, the download volume of Opera has tripled in multiple European countries, such as Belgium, France, Spain, Poland, and the UK." On June 13, December 16 last year, the European Union announced that it would accept Microsoft's compromise on anti-monopoly investigations, that is, to allow Windows users to choose to install IE competitors.
Starting from this week, Microsoft began to display a selection interface to Windows users, including IE, Firefox of Mozilla, Safari of apple, Chrome of Google, and Opera.
Opera also said earlier that Microsoft should allow Windows users to choose to install browsers competing with IE outside Europe.
