Yahoo and HP Logo Internet search engine Yahoo, has announced that its software was being preloaded onto Hewlett-Packard personal computers sold in Europe and North America.

Yahoo will be the Internet start-up page on desktops and notebooks sold in Europe beginning immediately, according to the companies.
HP personal computers sold in North America would feature a co-branded web browser toolbar and Yahoo would be the default search engine with the introduction of Internet Explorer Seven by Microsoft.

HP manager Bob Lund referred to the arrangement with Sunnyvale, California, based Yahoo as an “ideal combination.”

Pre-installing Yahoo software on HP computers would give buyers “instant access” to Yahoo services such as e-mail, instant messaging, news and finance, according to the companies.

“This relationship is an important component of Yahoos overall strategy to partner with leading global brands that will enable us to further extend our products and services to the worlds community of Internet users,” Yahoo chief Dan Rosensweig said in the release.
