Has anybody tried to verify this statement: "In 1996, Mr. Wong founded and managed Secure Networks Inc., an organization that developed Internet security tools and offered security consulting before it was acquired by Network Associates Inc. for approximately $25 million." In 1996 Network Associates was General Network and McAfee (two different companies that merged in 1997). I have been to Network Associates' home page and investor relations page and looked at all of the annual report from 1996 to 1997. I have also looked in EDGAR for SEC filings that mention this acquisition. I have not been able to find any reference to Secure Networks, Inc. It is interesting that NETA would mention a $2.1 million expense related to a different acquisition, but not mention a $25 million acquisition. Any help would be appreciated.

I'll let you know what they say. Also when I tried to look up the ticker symbol for Secure Networks (SNI) I could not find a company on Yahoo. However, I was able to find a company in FreeEDGAR called Sun City Industries, but not Secure Networks.
