 PROFILE
Lycos Europe is spinning a web across the Old Country through some 25 Web sites in about a dozen countries. Its sites include Lycos (search, content), Fireball (German-language search and content), Tripod (personal homepages), and Comundo (Internet access). More than 60% of sales come from advertising; e-commerce and licensing make up the rest. It has been expanding by snapping up other portals, including Scandinavia's Spray and France's MultiMania. US-based portal Lycos (now part of Terra Lycos, formed when Spain's Terra Networks bought Lycos) and German media giant Bertelsmann founded the company in 1997 and offered shares to the public in 2000. Terra Lycos owns about 30%; Bertelsmann, about 20%.
