Microsoft Corp reached an agreement with Lenovo Group Ltd to pre-load Lenovo computers with a toolbar of Microsoft's Windows Live online services including Web search, the two companies said on March 13.
The agreement between Lenovo, the world's third-largest PC maker, and Microsoft, replaces a similar deal the Chinese computer maker had with Google to pre-load the Web search leader's toolbar on its desktop and notebook computers.
Users will be able to change the settings, but many people tend not to change default settings. The agreement aims to increase traffic to Microsoft's Web services at a time when Google's search engine has become a first-stop for many Web visitors.
