Have you noticed a suspicious slow down of your computer’s processing without any particular reason? Are you bombarded by unsolicited pop up ads that indiscriminately appear whether you are running a program or not? These symptoms may continue to happen despite checking your system and running your recently updated anti virus program to run diagnostics on your computer.

Unless you run the correct program, you will not be able to detect the real problem in your system: spyware and adware.

Adware are unsolicited programs that usually come bundled with freeware or shareware. Yes, sometimes things that seem to be good to be true usually come with unwanted invisible strings attached. Companies usually pay freeware or shareware creators to be able to capitalize and prey on unsuspecting individuals who download these programs.

Microsoft and Yahoo in 10-year Web search partnership

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

Microsoft Corp and Yahoo Inc inked a ten year Web search deal to get an edge over market leader Google inc. Both companies stopped short of combining their display advertising businesses. The deal will boost Yahoo`s annual operating income by about 500 million and yield capital expenditure savings of $200 million, the companies said in a joint statement on Wednesday.

Microsoft’s Bing search engine will be the exclusive algorithmic search and paid search technology for Yahoo’s sites, while Yahoo will be responsible for selling premium search ads for both companies.

Each company will maintain its own separate display advertising business and sales force, they said.

While Google has an estimated 65% market share in the U.S. Microsoft and yahoo still have their work cut out for them. One of the problems facing both companies is the inability to bring good search results. Google`s content search results are are more reliable. I have done searches on all three using the same terms and Yahoo and Bing will have 20 to 30,000 more search results than Google.

In this case, more is not better. I did a search on Bing just the other day for my own sites and Bing had me listed right there at the top. The only problem is that when I clicked on the link, I was redirected to another page. How did they do that? Was it done in order to get me to pay for my ads?

I think it is more like a quirk in their system. I think they both should fix their search results and then selling more ad space will be more attractive to us. 10 years is a long time and I suspect They will end up combining their sales force and downsizing in the near future.
