This time it would be Mozilla, however, firmly negotiated with Microsoft, that there were very keen to the market share of its Bing search engine to increase. At the end of October, Mozilla and Microsoft already have a Firefox version with Bing, but the mainclient remains so Google as default search engine.
Also, Yahoo would be in the race for integration as your default internet search provider in Firefox, especially for the decrease of its market share to times. Finally found the amounts that Mozilla asked is too high. Mozilla has already taken the necessary agreements with partners such as Microsoft, Yahoo, Amazon and eBay, but these relate less prominent integration of services.
