Microsoft vs. Yahoo fight finished

November 15, 2009 Adeel Ansari Leave a comment

After a long wait a 10 year deal has been successfully executed by Yahoo! and Microsoft. The agreement will improve the Web search experience for users and advertisers, and deliver sustained innovation to the industry.

The agreement does not cover each company’s Web properties and products, email, instant messaging, display advertising, or any other aspect of the companies’ businesses.

The key terms of the agreement are as follows:

  • The term of the agreement is 10 years;
  • Microsoft will acquire an exclusive 10 year license to Yahoo!’s core search technologies, and Microsoft will have the ability to integrate Yahoo! search technologies into its existing Web search platforms;
  • Microsoft’s Bing will be the exclusive algorithmic search and paid search platform for Yahoo! sites. Yahoo! will continue to use its technology and data in other areas of its business such as enhancing display advertising technology;
  • Yahoo! will become the exclusive worldwide relationship sales force for both companies’ premium search advertisers. Self-serve advertising for both companies will be fulfilled by Microsoft’s AdCenter platform, and prices for all search ads will continue to be set by AdCenter’s automated auction process;
  • Each company will maintain its own separate display advertising business and sales force;
  • Yahoo! will innovate and “own” the user experience on Yahoo! properties, including the user experience for search, even though it will be powered by Microsoft technology;
  • Microsoft will compensate Yahoo! through a revenue sharing agreement on traffic generated on Yahoo!’s network of both owned and operated (O&O) and affiliate sites;
    • Microsoft will pay traffic acquisition costs (TAC) to Yahoo! at an initial rate of 88 percent of search revenue generated on Yahoo!’s O&O sites during the first five years of the agreement; and
    • Yahoo! will continue to syndicate its existing search affiliate partnerships.
  • Microsoft will guarantee Yahoo!’s O&O revenue per search (RPS) in each country for the first 18 months following initial implementation in that country;
  • At full implementation (expected to occur within 24 months following regulatory approval), Yahoo! estimates, based on current levels of revenue and current operating expenses, that this agreement will provide a benefit to annual GAAP operating income of approximately $500 million and capital expenditure savings of approximately $200 million. Yahoo! also estimates that this agreement will provide a benefit to annual operating cash flow of approximately $275 million; and
  • The agreement protects consumer privacy by limiting the data shared between the companies to the minimum necessary to operate and improve the combined search platform, and restricts the use of search data shared between the companies. The agreement maintains the industry-leading privacy practices that each company follows today.

    A standard for a universal phone charger was approved this week by the International Telecommunication Union, a branch of the United Nations.

    The Universal Charging Solution will enable the creation of one-size-fits-all chargers that can be used on any future phone, according to the ITU.

    The standard is based on input from the GSM Association, which expects the shift to eliminate 51,000 tons of redundant chargers, or 13.6 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions each year.

    Based on Micro-USB, the new chargers will also be energy efficient.

    “Universal chargers are a common-sense solution that I look forward to seeing in other areas,” Malcolm Johnson, director of ITU’s telecommunication standardization bureau, said in a statement.

    Manufacturers are not required to adopt the new chargers, but some have already signed up, such as Sony Ericsson, according to the BBC.

    Control XP’s Autorun Script (Disable Autorun Script)

    Disable Autorun Script

    76805t

    Disabling the Windows XP Autorun feature using our downloadable custom script can help protect you from worms and other malware. Many security experts recommend turning off the Autorun feature to stop a common malware tactic of infecting a removable drive, such as a USB drive, so that it will automatically attempt to spread malware when the infected USB drive is connected to a new PC.
    This script will change the Windows registry. To use it, download the file and double-click it. If you want to reverse the change, download and run the re-enable script.
    Note that with Autorun disabled, you’ll no longer get an automatic installation prompt when you insert a program’s installation CD or perform similar Autorun-dependent tasks. Instead, you’ll need to double-click the installation or other program on the CD or removable drive yourself. Also, there have been reports of potential problems with U3 thumb drives when Autorun is disabled. Should you wish to restore Autorun, use our Restore Autorun script.
    If you use Windows Vista and want to disable Autorun, see Microsoft’s somewhat techie-oriented Vista instructions.

    To use it, unzip the download and double-click the DisableAutorun.reg script.

    Restore Autorun Script

    Disabling the Windows XP Autorun feature using our downloadable custom script can help protect you from worms and other malware. But if you’ve run into any problems from doing so, you can reverse the changes by downloading and double-clicking this restoration script.
    Both the disable and re-enable scripts automate steps suggested by Nick Brown and further recommended by the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) to improve security on a Windows XP computer.

    DOWNLOAD

    To use it, unzip the download and double-click the RestoreAutorun.reg script.

    5 Tips to Help Protect Yourself from E-mail Scams ‏

    October 14, 2008 Adeel Ansari Leave a comment

    1) Be wary of e-mails asking for your personal information.
    Any e-mail asking for your name, birth date, e-mail username, e-mail password, or any other type of personal information, no matter who the e-mail appears to be from, is almost certainly a scam.
    If you have any reason to believe it may be legitimate, do not reply to the e-mail or click any hyperlinks; instead copy and paste the web URL or go to that company’s website for contact information. Don’t hesitate to contact the company’s support channel to confirm legitimacy.

    2) Carefully read e-mails that appear suspicious.
    E-mails that are poorly worded, have typos, or have phrases such as “this is not a joke” or “forward this message to your friends” are generally scam e-mails. Sometimes company names or brands are misspelled or inaccurate; such as saying Windows Hotmail (instead of Windows Live™ Hotmail).

    3) Protect your Hotmail password.
    Create a strong password for your Hotmail account by using more than 7 characters and having a combination of upper and lower case characters, numbers, and special characters, like the @ or # symbols. It’s also a good idea to change your password on a regular basis. Learn More.
    If you receive a notification from Microsoft Customer Support confirming your request to change your password, as I did this past week, and you haven’t recently changed your password, that’s a signal that someone else may be trying to gain access to your Hotmail account, and you should immediately change your password. To do so, either go to http://account.live.com, or within Hotmail, click Options, then View and Edit your Personal Information. You will be prompted to log in again. Once you do, look for “Password reset information” under your name at the top. Change both your password and your Secret Question/Secret Answer as both may have been compromised.

    4) Take action!
    If you think someone has accessed your Hotmail account, that the Windows Live ID sign-in page looks fraudulent, or you receive a suspicious e-mail that tries to confirm a password change you didn’t authorize, change your password immediately via the instructions above, or go to: http://account.live.com.

    5) Help us identify new scams.
    If you’re using the Full version of Hotmail, you can select the dropdown next to “Junk”, then select “Report phishing scam”. Whatever you do, do not reply back to the sender.

    You can read more about this topic here.

    I encourage you to keep Post Bookmark for future reference on what to do if you do receive a scam e-mail so that you can help keep your inbox more safe and secure.
    Sincerely,

    Muhammad Adeel Ansari
