I am not an attorney. Perhaps GRC can better answer the question about time limitations. He seems familiar with the legal process. As far as I know, there is no law about time elements for moving a civil dispute through the courts.

As far as damages are concerned, damages begin when proper notice is given as to infringement. Since the patent was issued well before there was any infringement, there are no damages that could conceivable go back to the issuance of the patent. Electronic distribution of digital data products is a relatively new phenomenon dating back sveral years. However, with announcements nearly everyday about bandwidth (cable, DSL, etc.) and about encryption standards for digital products, the next 5 years will see an immense increase in that type of e-commerce (software, music, video, etc.).
