- What happens to other products that perform the same function?
-
Can they now sue McAfee and E-trust because they have products that do this too?
What about Avast? They are located in Prague (it's in the Czech Republic); US patents don't mean squat to them.
Software patents will be bad for everyone except lawyers.
Symantec should also patent slowing a computer to a crawl - they seem to have that down pat!
I have to call my lawyer - I want to patent this code that I wrote that adds two numbers together, then puts the result in memory. Then I just need to find & sue everyone whose program adds numbers. - Posted by: Hugh Jass Posted on: 03/02/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
