EarthLink rejects FBI's request to install Carnivore 

ATLANTA -- Less than 24 hours after last week's terrorist attacks on New York and 
Washington, FBI agents visited executives in EarthLink's Atlanta headquarters. The 
agents, subpoenas in hand, wanted EarthLink personnel to install the FBI's 
controversial tracking software -- called Carnivore -- on the networks the company 
uses to connect customers to the Internet. The agents were looking for electronic 
clues, trying to retrace suspected terrorists' steps in cyberspace.
