That is a great story, thank you for posting it. I am surprised you are such a big Chris Byron fan like myself. Especially since Chris wrote that most excellent article on NCDR and a few other stocks which you were heavily involved in. I am sure everytime Chris sees your name on a message thread he knows he has found a good stock to write about. BTW Afrayem watch out for this Stark guy. Hey wasnt that the same Renee Hamouth in NCDR that shows up in the CMFD SEC filings? tenkwizard.com

Net Command Tech, Inc. File No. 500-1

ORDER OF SUSPENSION OF TRADING

It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of Net Command Tech, Inc. f/k/a Corsaire, Inc. ("NCT"), an Internet technology company whose common stock is being quoted in the over-the-counter market, because of questions regarding the accuracy and adequacy of publicly available information disseminated by NCT and others to market makers of the stock of NCT, other broker dealers, and to investors concerning, among other things: (1) the purported acquisition by NCT of certain companies' assets and stock and the value of those assets and stock; (2) a $1.5 million line of credit purportedly secured by NCT from a European bank; (3) the revenue generated by an American company purportedly acquired by NCT; and (4) the business success and reputation of NCT's CEO and president.

The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the securities of the above-listed company.

Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the above-listed company is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT, on June 11, 1999, through 11:59 p.m. EDT, on June 24, 1999.

By the Commission.

SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
RELEASE NO. 41517 / June 11, 1999

The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the temporary suspension, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), of over-the-counter trading of the securities of Net Command Tech, Inc. ("NCT"), of New York, New York, at 9:30 a.m. EDT, on June 11, 1999, and terminating at 11:59 p.m. EDT on June 24, 1999.

The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of NCT because of questions that have been raised about the accuracy and adequacy of publicly disseminated information concerning, among other things, the purported acquisition by NCT of certain companies' assets and stock and the value of those assets and stock, a $1.5 million line of credit purportedly secured by NCT from a European bank, the revenue generated by an American company purportedly acquired by NCT, and the business success and reputation of NCT's CEO and president.

The Commission cautions broker dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other currently available information and any information subsequently issued by the company.

Further, brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the trading suspension, no quotation may be entered unless and until they have strictly complied with all of the provisions of the rule. If any broker or dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied with the rule, he should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington, D.C. If any broker or dealer is uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he should refrain from entering quotations relating to NCT's securities until such time as he has familiarized himself with the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. If any broker or dealer enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the need for prompt enforcement action.

If any broker dealer or other person has any information which may be related to this matter, the Miami, Florida office of the Securities and Exchange Commission should be telephoned at (305) 982-6390.

How's that lawsuit going Isaac?: "President of Defunct Securities Firm Pleads Guilty to Racketeering Charge

Associated Press

NEW YORK -- The former president of Meyers Pollock Robbins, a
now-defunct securities firm that caused investors to lose more than $83
million, pleaded guilty Wednesday to racketeering.

Michael Ploshnick, 56 years old, of Boca
Raton, Fla., headed Meyers Pollock Robbins
Inc., which was described by prosecutors as a
multistate "pump and dump" stock fraud
operation that was indicted along with more
than 40 of its employees.

The company, which had been the subject of
several state and federal investigations, had
offices in Manhattan; Melville, on Long Island;
Las Vegas; Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale,
Fla., all of which closed in 1997.

Mr. Ploshnick admitted to State Supreme Court Justice Bernard Fried that
he promoted stock that he knew was worthless and caused investors to
lose millions of dollars. "I was responsible, your honor," he said.

Mr. Ploshnick had faced up to 25 years in prison, but he pleaded as part
of an agreement by which his sentence could be reduced to as little as one
to three years, depending how much he helps prosecutors.

Justice Fried didn't promise a specific sentence or set a sentencing date.

Mr. Ploshnick also was fined $5 million, which defense and prosecution
lawyers said represented at least twice what investigators believe he
personally gained through the stock swindles.

His lawyer, Charles Stillman, told Justice Fried, "Mr. Ploshnick has no
funds."

Mr. Stillman also entered a guilty plea for Meyers Pollock. He said any
fine that Justice Fried assesses the firm will be paid partly by funds held by
the investment bank. He said that amount is $400,000 to $600,000.

About 20 others have pleaded guilty in connection with the firm's illegal
acts. In pleading, Mr. Ploshnick implicated 17 of the 21 other defendants
who have continued to plead innocent.
