All, FYI: http://www.news.com/News/Item/0,4,39496,00.html In late June, Playboy lost a lawsuit which sought to bar two portal sites from generating hard core sex ads when visitors searched for the term "playboy." Playboy had alleged, in the suit filed in the U.S. District Court in the Central District of California, that Excite and Netscape Communications violated its trademarks by presenting other companies' banner ads when surfers sought out the magazine's web site. The court found that the trademark had not been infringed because the terms "playboy" and "playmate" are part of the English language and no company can dominate their usage. Playboy has said it plans to appeal. Regards, -- Jeffrey A. Williams Spokesman INEGroup (Over 95k members strong!) CEO/DIR. Internet Network Eng/SR. Java/CORBA Development Eng.
