A federal judge on Thursday ordered Symantec to recall its Norton Uninstall Deluxe software product from the market because it likely infringes on CyberMedia's.

The Northern District Court in San Jose, California, granted CyberMedia's request for a preliminary injunction against Symantec while it pursues its copyright infringement lawsuit. CyberMedia (CYBR) is alleging that rival Symantec stole code from the CyberMedia UnInstaller product and put it in Norton Uninstall, a program that removes unwanted software from a PC.

This may help CleanSweep sales, can't hurt.

In my last response several weeks ago, I said I was staying the
course with my many thousand shares, when I thought it would go
to 1/2 and hold. I was wrong on the hold, but I still think in
coming quarters, we will see profitability. Must grit teeth and
bear it. Warren Buffet says if you can't stand a 20% drop in a
stock the week after you buy it, and buy some more, it is not a
good buy.

Ron Best of luck I don't think I would bet on Qdeck much longer
They shut down the last of the telemarketing in Florida yesterday.
Quarterdeck pulled the plug from the Sutherland Group that they outsourced to last Jan.
Gave Corporate sales (maybe 12??) 2 weeks notice to wrap up the quarter, and just told the other group to pack up that Quarterdeck saw no future need for sales force??
That leaves the few customer service reps in Missouri to handle all sales and whats left of tech support and customer service.
Other thrilling news is the Beta release of Crashdefender????
With no really new products; no developers or programmers left and no one left to market them I think Qdeck is just going down the tubes
Goodnight
