yahoo search to 'battle spyware'
Yahoo is introducing new technology to its search engine which will warn users if they are about to click on a website that hosts viruses, spyware and spam.
SearchScan uses security firm McAfee's SiteAdvisor technology to warn users about "potentially risky sites".
The service, which is switched on by default, produces an on-screen alert.
