Understood. At least they paid cash rather than free trading shares to the spammer. This excerpt just landed in my e-mail today:

Viscount Awarded Major Project in Chicago

BURNABY, British Columbia, May 15, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Viscount Systems Inc. (OTCBB:VSYS) President and CEO Stephen Pineau is pleased to announce The Company has secured another major contract. Viscount dealer M&R Electronics will be securing a complex of 18 buildings in suburban Chicago with Viscount's Enterphone building control system.
"We have been a Viscount dealer for 20 years and the quality of Viscount products has always made our job easier," commented Steve Kearney of M&R. "We sometimes see less expensive imitations quoted on a project but building managers know that the most important thing is reliability. With Viscount's huge installed base of systems and awesome reputation we expect Chicago to be a major market for their new MESH product. The system really takes building security to a new level."

"Our strong distribution channels make the introduction of MESH almost seamless," noted Mr. Pineau. "Most smaller companies launching such a major technology would waste a great deal of time and money simply building a dealer network. Viscount's 30 years of goodwill is a valuable asset both in terms of developing dealers and our strong brand recognition within building management organisations."

Well, it continues to go up virtually every day and they keep announcing new contracts (though no dollar figures mentioned):

Viscount Awarded Emerphone Contract (bwire)

Business Editors

BURNABY, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 22, 2002--Viscount Systems Inc.(OTCBB - VSYS) President and CEO Stephen Pineau is pleased to announce The Company has secured a contract to supply JACO Systems with Emerphone to be used to monitor a series of telephone transmission towers in the Midwest US.
The main function of the Emerphones will be to detect faults within the emergency beacon systems used to warn aircraft in accordance with new FAA regulations.
"When we were designing the Emerphone product our primary criteria was flexibility," stated Mr. Pineau. "We believed the universal Emerphone circuit board could be suitable in a wide range of uses that could expand the potential market well beyond the basic functions for elevators, public transit and underground parking. This particular application allows personnel at the Telephone Company monitoring station to automatically dispatch service in the event of failure. The Emerphones will also be upgraded to dial in to diagnose the status of the equipment."
"Viscount's philosophy of providing new products and solutions that converge security and computer telephony technologies is exemplified by this type of project." Continued Mr. Pineau. "As we continue to expand our marketing efforts we expect to see many more unexpected opportunities with Emerphone."
