Rick, I agree with you there! We have been given a preview of what's to come what with all the press we've seen from IDX and MOT. I'd say we held up pretty good all things considered... Technically were looking pretty good also IMO. Volume in the last couple of days is certainly foretelling something. Trend should turn from passive to up. Stochastic is turning up from oversold. The MACD is turning and on it's above the centerline. Things are coming to a head and looking pretty good indeed. What are the chances that we se a penny or two for earnings? Forcast is .00. I've see a forcasted range of -.04 to .00. Couldn't get into SI for a while. Posted this on Yahoo and RB. Intershop replaces passwords with fingerprint ID system October 1, 1999 Web posted at: 12:30 p.m. EDT (1630 GMT) by Mary Lisbeth D'Amico From... MUNICH (IDG) -- Intershop Communications' e-commerce software will soon have a new security twist. Instead of making users sign onto protected sites with a password, the new technology will verify their identity by their fingerprints. The new security technology, called Goldfinger, is the result of the German software vendor's partnership with Berlin-based Brain Trust Marketing. The product is designed to provide security for closed-user networks, mainly for business-to-business e-commerce applications, said Herwig Ehrenberger, a Brain Trust spokesman. Goldfinger will be available in the fourth quarter in Europe and later will be marketed globally, according to Ehrenberger. A biometric scanner connected to a computer, scans a user's fingerprint and compares it to an original scanned-in image of an authorized user's fingerprint. The person gains access to the online shop only if this match-up is accurate. Desktop users of the system receive a software plug-in that enables the client computer to send the fingerprint data to a central server, where the original fingerprint information is stored and evaluated. Brain Trust also installs and operates a server network for such systems. Goldfinger for Intershop will be available to anyone with the merchant or hosting edition of Intershop 4, the e-commerce vendor's most recent software version. BrainTrust plans to show Goldfinger for Intershop at Internet World and the Intershop Open users conference, both of which are being held in New York during the first week of October. cnn.com:80/TECH/computing/9910/01/goldfinger.idg/index.html steve
