Yahoo Pushing IE 7 on FireFox Users
,----[ Quote ]
| It appears that Yahoo is pushing downloads of the new IE 7 from
| Microsoft and including itself as the default search engine installed
| in the file menu area.

| While not having a large impact on the results or being that obtrusive
| of an ad it definitely pulls into question the alliances between the
| search engines and the browser wars going on. Google is still
| packaging FireFox with its free Google Pack offering that also
| includes the Google toolbar.

They probably just promote their own build of IE (or toolbars), but someone
could clearly 'promote' this push.
