Rene If it helps, I think it's wrong. The problem is I think this is a Securities Act regulation issue, not a CMGI issue. I think they're just following the regs.

"But I suppose you're ok as long as you got yourself covered." Rene, not necessarily so... however, what distinguishes Americans (and I am one) is that we try to be very practical... change takes a lot of time, effort and energy...and at any given point, we all are pressed to make decisions... to be practical or idealistic and the consequences... where human life was involved (like Kosova recently), being idealistic governed... and where only money is at issue, it seems that it's practicality... now, I don't know why or how is it not practical for non-US citizens to participate in CMGI's DSP, I tend to think that there must be some issues that need ironing out... only time may tell. best regards amein

Rene -- I've always appreciated your opinions on this thread. But, dood, you've got to let this one go. You should be thanking your stars that ENGA is here today to cover your CMGI ass-ets. With the Nasdaq down ~85 today, there's only one reason why your screen shows CMGI in the green. It's Engage. It's a US stock trading on a US exchange (I invite you to reflect on what the "N" in Nasdaq stands for...) under US regulations. We don't live under a global nation state. It's a federated world with different governments... If this matter is of primal importance to you, one might suggest changing your citizenship... Regardless, while I somewhat have sympathy for your plight (somewhat), I think it's time to move on from this. Life isn't fair. Markets aren't perfect. If ENGA tanks down to $5 can we come complaining to you that it was unfair you were prevented from losing money? I continue to wish you good luck and hope you'll continue to post here.
