<I will of course bring the IHT article to the attention of the appropriate groups within Cisco.>

Good idea.

But, you know Jorj, IHT only mentioned Cisco in that one paragraph, and I imagine it was factual since it included the link to Cisco's site. So, I don't know how much they can do about it.

But, I can understand your sensitivity, particularly since you work for Cisco.

I think Cisco's a great company. Two of my best friends got into Cisco in '96 - with very large positions. Both are multi-millionnaires now because of Cisco. They don't trade. They hold positions long-term.

If you have CNBC, you'll see one of my friends on that IBD [Investor's Business Daily] ad, that's been running over and over lately. She's the last one on, before the commercial ends. She's the one who said "I doubled my money." But in the case of Cisco - she did far more than that. She was one of the first female V.P.'s for one of the major brokerage firms, back in the early 80's, and was also one of Glamour Magazines top 10 career women in mid or late 80's. Can't remember the year.

I don't think the article was intended to reflect poorly on Cisco.

IMHO - It was intended to show the overall vulnerability of the Internet.
