Take a look at this News.com article: http://news.com.com/2100-1032_3-1016250.html Some quotes: "A Washington district court this week denied a request for a preliminary injunction by Mailblocks, an antispam software company that claims rival Spam Arrest is violating its patented technology. " "The court ruled in favor of Spam Arrest's motion to stay the request despite its admission of patent infringement. Spam Arrest argued instead that Mailblocks' patents were invalid because of "prior art"--that is, because systems for challenge-response technology predate Mailblocks' own. The company also requested that similar pending patent complaints by Mailblocks, such as one against EarthLink, should be combined and heard as one by the Multidistrict Litigation Panel, which specializes in hearing multiple complaints. " " The company has already dropped a similar suit against MailFrontier because it entered into discussions, he said. Also, the company expects to announce its first licensing partner later this week" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yakov Shafranovich / <research@solidmatrix.com> SolidMatrix Research, a division of SolidMatrix Technologies, Inc. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "One who watches the wind will never sow, and one who keeps his eyes on the clouds will never reap" (Ecclesiastes 11:4) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Asrg mailing list Asrg@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/asrg
