Microsoft's Bing search engine inched up to claim 10.3% of the U.S. market in November, up 0.4% sequentially, while Yahoo took more lumps and fell to 17.5%, down 1% sequentially and down 2.6% since May, according to comScore with Google lengths ahead at 65.6%, up 0.6% since May.
The numbers raise doubts about the Microsoft-Yahoo combine as an effective drag on Google as well as how much Yahoo will actually see from the Microsoft deal, still being reviewed by regulators.
