Eolas hasn't sued them.  Copyrights don't automatically protect the holder,
they just give the holder the right to sue over infringement.  If Eolas sues
them, they'll very likely lose (like MS) and have to change their browsers.
However, I suspect targetting MS is a political action, more than a real
concern, so it probably won't happen.

  I haven't seen anything about how this affects Netscape, AOL, Opera, etc.
  Aren't they "infringing" on Eola$ patent?
