Yahoo! Inc. must switch to Microsoft Corp.’s Bing search service in Taiwan by Oct. 28, a federal judge said in upholding an arbitration decision blocking Yahoo from postponing the transition until next year.

U.S. District Judge Robert Patterson in Manhattan said Yahoo must abide by the terms of a 2009 agreement it forged with Microsoft to merge their search capabilities internationally to better compete with Google Inc., the world’s largest search engine company.
