> Deposition challenges Trend Micro patent on virus scans

[quote]
After hearing from Barracuda's legal representatives, Fransson started
searching his basement for old records. He says, "I found source code
for the product from January of '95, an original manual, and even the
packaging box and diskettes. I was able to install the product, and it
actually still worked. I was able to enable virus scanning and all the
things that Patent '600 is claiming that Trend Micro was doing first in
September 1995."
