Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology US-TECH Summary Reuters - Friday, February 19 Send IM Story Print Microsoft steps up search assault on Google SEATTLE - Microsoft Corp's <MSFT.O> assault on search engine leader Google Inc <GOOG.O> took a major step forward on Thursday as U.S. and European regulators cleared the software company's search partnership with Yahoo Inc <YHOO.O>. The 10-year deal, struck last July, is the biggest effort yet by Microsoft to establish an online business to rival Google, an area where Microsoft has lost $5 billion over the last four years. Google's books plan hailed, reviled; no ruling NEW YORK - Google Inc <GOOG.O> was lauded as a visionary intent on spreading the world's knowledge and reviled as a copyright infringer cavalier about protecting users' privacy in a hearing on Thursday to discuss its plan to digitize millions of books. Under the terms of the proposed settlement of a 2005 lawsuit brought by the Authors Guild, Google would pay $125 million to create a book rights registry, where authors and publishers would register works and be paid for books and other publications the search giant puts online. Probe traces Google attacks to 2 Chinese schools: report NEW YORK - Recent cyber attacks on Google <GOOG.O> and other American corporations have been traced to a top Chinese university as well as a school with ties to the Chinese military, the New York Times reported on Thursday, citing people involved in the investigation. Those people told the Times that the Chinese schools involved are Shanghai Jiaotong University and the Lanxiang Vocational School. They said the attacks may have started as early as April 2009 -- earlier than previously thought. Social networking, govt sites hacked in global attack - A new type of computer virus is known to have breached almost 75,000 computers in 2,500 organizations around the world, including user accounts of popular social network websites, according Internet security firm NetWitness. The latest virus -- known as "Kneber botnet" -- gathers login credentials to online financial systems, social networking sites and email systems from infested computers and reports the information back to hackers, NetWitness said in a statement. FCC expands broadband access at schools WASHINGTON - The Federal Communications Commission voted to expand a school program that is likely to help increase Americans' access to high-speed Internet, a major goal of the upcoming National Broadband Plan. The program, called E-rate, funds schools' connectivity to the Internet under the $8 billion Universal Service Fund, a U.S. subsidy program for low-income families to gain access to phone service as well as for education and health services. Ashton Kutcher tells Russia of social web power MOSCOW - U.S. film star and Twitter celebrity Ashton Kutcher encouraged Russians on Thursday to share ideas through social media websites during a visit by U.S. technology leaders to Moscow. Kutcher, with more than 4.5 million followers on microblogging site Twitter, is the star of the number one film at the U.S. box office last weekend, "Valentine's Day." Amazon launches free Kindle app for Blackberry - Amazon.com <AMZN.O> said on Thursday it is launching a new free Kindle application that will give customers access to over 420,000 books on a range of BlackBerry <RIM.TO> devices. Called "Kindle for Blackberry", the free application allows customers using BlackBerry devices on AT&T <T.N>, Sprint <S.N>, T-Mobile <DTEGn.DE>, Verizon <VZ.N>, and other U.S. carriers easy wireless access to Kindle books, most for $9.99 or less. Atari beams up with new Star Trek online game RALEIGH, North Carolina game set in Gene Roddenberry's science fiction universe that dates back to 1966. AT&T plans 3 test labs for high-speed services NEW YORK - AT&T Inc <T.N> said on Thursday it would open three development facilities to test network equipment and mobile devices for its next generation of high-speed wireless services. The announcement follows the opening of a similar facility a year ago by bigger rival Verizon Wireless, a venture of Verizon Communications <VZ.N> and Vodafone Group Plc <VOD.L>. New HBO online strategy only benefits subscribers LOS ANGELES - Even before HBO officially unveiled its new broadband strategy Wednesday, the buzz had been building for HBO Go. "Spending 30 seconds with HBO Go makes you want to throw out your cable box," Pali Capital analyst Richard Greenfield wrote last month, when the site was in beta deployment.
