SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- The European Union's top antitrust regulator has warned Microsoft Corp. it won't be allowed to sell its new Windows Vista operating system in Europe if it comes prepackaged with certain features, according to a report Wednesday.
The warning to Microsoft, already locked in a battle with the E.U. over its current operating system, came in a March 20 letter from Neelie Kroes, the E.U.'s antitrust commissioner, The Wall Street Journal reported in its online edition. See Wall Street Journal story (subscription required).

The concerns, focusing on Internet browsers and software security functions, mirror the dispute over software packaged with Microsoft's current system, The Journal reported.
Microsoft said it wasn't aware of the March 20 letter to Chief Executive Steve Ballmer, and couldn't comment.
