US Internet giant Google saw chances of a quick resolution to an anti-trust probe fade on Tuesday after EU Competition Commissioner Joaquin Almunia called for "new solutions" to address complaints from rivals. Google and the Commission agreed a deal in February over charges that the world's largest search engine was squeezing out competitors in Europe, thereby avoiding potentially billions in fines against the company. In that accord, Google agreed to give equal prominence to rival services in its search results after competitors -- including Microsoft and TripAdvisor -- argued the company has abused its dominant position in the European market, where it accounts for 90 percent of traffic. "We need to analyse this and to see if... Google can find solutions to some of these concerns that we consider justified," he said.
