No wonder...!!! This is BS! Why make such a comment unless they were worried about their own stock or afraid ATHM would rise
too much before a deal...I'm buying more!!!!! I've always
said take profits when the present themselves! This is a good reason why...I just expected more! I always leave money
on the table...I don't like doing it this way!

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 3 (Reuters) - ExciteAtHome Corp. (Nasdaq:ATHM) President George Bell on Tuesday flatly denied a report
that his Internet services company was in talks to merge
with Yahoo! Inc. (Nasdaq:YHOO) , another top player in the field.
Asked to respond to a BusinessWeek Online report that the two companies have held talks on a deal that would value Excite
AtHome at something more than its current market value around $17 billion, Bell said there was "No truth to the story."
