<<'tornado of fraud and stupidity' - good one. Haha.>>

In actuality, William, I think either "vortex" or "maelstrom" would work better, although you don't really want a Harlequin romance liner note kind of tone ("William... sucked against his will into a vortex engulfing Steve, the dashing young doctor, and Doug, the sophisticated CEO...")

I don't think so any more. I really believe there is some creative accounting going on, but productivity tools for the net will be a valid thriving oppotunity starting later this year. I would like to use Net magnet to formulate a better opinion on it as a product, however, there are a lot of corporate research items which could make good use of this type of product.

Hey Billy, know anything about this new COO. It would have been nice if Peak would have told us which companies he has worked for. Doubt we will see any movement in the stock until the audit results are released.

Friend of mine was brave enough to try WebSonic, here is what he said:

"WebSonic- You're not missing a thing. Brings up Netscape on the install, and gave me an error message that my modem was using another dial-up connection, wouldn't let me start up BellSouth. Had to shut down, retry. Didn't notice any speed difference, and pulled up old pages for stock quotes. And most people don't want hour-old quotes. Didn't uninstall successfully, either. Two files won't go away, though they take up no space. Another subdirectory had to be uninstalled manually, and references to WebSonic remained in the registry even after all that."
