If you search for Chrome on Bing.com, the first link is a spyware

Same for firefox:

Top link will be: > Firefox - Download Latest Version. 100% Free. > Firefox.freegogo-download.com
Which is InstallCore infected.

First three links appear to be malicious:

Chrome download | downloadian.com downloadian.com/chrome

I got hit by this a few weeks ago, on a box fresh laptop (uk).
Following your link gets me the official Google Chrome page as the first link. Must be location-specific.
For me, the first search result is chrome official page, but above that is the ad which links to spyware website.
It's the ad that points to fake not to the first search result.
Or they fixed it/bing corrected itself, or it was an anomaly - hey OP, how about a screenshot?
What I'd bet against is it being deliberate, unless an employee went rogue.

I'm from India, it points me to official Google Chrome page as the first link. Definitely its location specific as he said.
Can confirm (I'm in France):

First ad is a link to: http://r9.chr.telecharger-ici.com/?pk_campaign=Chr-yahoosear...
I saw this last week in the uk. It is (or at least was) a genuine widespread issue.
Poland - normal result page without link which you describe.
He binged "chrome" and opened the first link. Bam. Spyware.

might be just in french though, looks so legit:
Telecharger Google Chrome | Google.com www.Google.com/Chrome Téléchargez Google Chrome Gratuit ! Dernière Version
How come they can enter a fake domain name in the advertisement program of Bing?
