They are now all owned by Infospace. The important one expires mid-2005, which is pretty soon. The ec-logix stuff looks like nonsense. They display bitmaps of the old Digicash wallet GUI, and I expect they will be hearing from Infospace. <Somebody's .sig> --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R. A.
