I had my order in to sell at 133 and although it looked like it hit 133 1/16 my order still didn't execute. I should have entered in for 132 7/8 - then it might have gone!

I have the "feeling" that the mood of investors is going to turn just a bit more cautious in the coming days and the internet stocks will do some back-peddling.

Tier One Internet Access Provider One of Four Companies to Run First Yahoo!
Audio Ads

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 4, 1998--It only seems fitting that Tier
One Internet Access Provider, Netrail, is among the first companies to take
advantage of ActiveBanner(tm)--the first audio-enhanced banner ad approved by
Yahoo! Netrail is supplying the media server that enables Yahoo! to run the
ads without tying up its own network.

Yahoo! recently approved the use of the ActiveBanner(tm) ads from ADNet
International, which serve up the audio when a viewer clicks on the ad. After
activating the RealAudio(R) player, the audio will stream from Netrail's media
server. Each ActiveBanner(tm) ad contains a distinctive "click to HEAR" button
that is used as a standard indicator that the banner contains an audio file.

Netrail President, Tom Body, considers audio banners a new and innovative
way to advertise. "We are building our backbone while looking at the future of
enriched media on the Internet. We're putting in a clear-channel DS3 ATM to
stay on the forefront of the industry while providing for the emerging needs
of the Internet community."

ADNet International, which provides Internet marketing to advertisers and
ad agencies, developed the technology in response to continued requests from
clients. The ActiveBanner(tm) technology uses RealAudio(R) to deliver a "radio
spot" ad in conjunction with a typical banner.

Netrail is among only three other companies to have used the
ActiveBanner(tm) ads during Yahoo!'s inaugural run, and they are the only
Internet company included.

ADNet CEO, Patrick Anderson, recommends ActiveBanner(tm) ads as a natural
transition for companies who are looking for a way to enhance the
effectiveness of their banner campaigns.

"Humans have several senses and tend to respond better to one primary set
over another. That is why there are readers, listeners & viewers," said
Anderson. "Listeners are better influenced through audio-oriented media
because sounds and spoken words sway our emotions. If you want to target a
tech-adapted audience who frequently listen to radio, music & talk shows then
audio ads can be an effective supplement to your campaign."
