idtc puts go.com link on beta site cbs.marketwatch.com Shareholders of Hackensack, N.J., telephony specialist IDT (IDTC) used the company's message board on Yahoo to post a link to a Web site that offered a new version of the Net2Phone software featuring the Disney (DIS) and Infoseek (SEEK) Go.com logo. Shares of IDT were up 1/16 at 16 7/8 near midday Friday. The logo, in the shape of a traffic light, is prominently featured on the Net2Phone graphic interface, which resembles a cellular phone. Members said they have used this version of the software and that, when they clicked onto the Go button, they were driven directly to the Go.com portal. The Web site was later taken down, but the graphic interface was e-mailed to CBS.MarketWatch.com. It's shown at right. A spokeswoman for IDT declined to comment; a spokeswoman for the Go Network said she wasn't aware of any alliance. "I downloaded the new 9.4.4 version of the Net2Phone a couple of days ago when someone on this board posted the link," read a message posted at 8:50 a.m. Eastern time Friday on Yahoo's IDT message board. "I did not pay any attention until after I read the post that this new version has a yellow Go.com button on it. IDT seems to be monitoring this message board. Only a couple of hours after the post, they no longer provide access to that file." IDT has already set up alliances with Netscape (NSCP) and Yahoo (YHOO). See related story. IDT Corp. is apparently mulling an IPO for its Net2Phone unit. On Jan. 26, shares rose 20 percent amid talk that the provider of telephone and Internet access may spin off its Net telephony operations in a public offering.
