SonicWALL Internet Threat Prevention Protects Customers Against Windows Exploits Targeting 'World of Warcraft' Players

SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SonicWALL, Inc. , a leading provider of network security, email security, secure remote access, and backup and recovery solutions, confirmed today that users of its Unified Threat Management (UTM) technology are protected against malware targeted at World of Warcraft (WoW) players. WoW is a popular online computer game published by Blizzard Entertainment, with more than 8 million players worldwide.

SonicWALL first began providing protection against this malware in October, 2006, and has been issuing new signatures on a continual basis as more variants of the malware, designed to steal the in-game assets of WoW players, have been identified.

The Windows vulnerability is exploited by installing keylogging software on players' computers if they visit an infected web site. This allows hackers to obtain players' WoW passwords, access WoW player accounts and steal their virtual assets. While Blizzard Entertainment does not officially allow players to buy or sell assets, a thriving unofficial market for WoW assets exists.

"Although the malware currently only targets game players, it's important to protect against it in the workplace since keystroke loggers bring risks into a business network," said Alex Dubrovsky of SonicWALL's Security Center.

Users of SonicWALL's dynamic threat prevention services are protected by the signatures:

WOW.PU (Trojan) 4/4/2007 9:25:06 PM WOW.JE (Trojan) 4/4/2007 9:25:05 PM WOW.QG (Trojan) 4/4/2007 9:25:04 PM WOW.ET (Trojan) 3/29/2007 10:49:55 PM WOW.dldr.1 (Trojan) 3/23/2007 9:07:04 PM WOW.ET (Trojan) 3/23/2007 9:07:04 PM WOW.ES (Trojan) 3/23/2007 9:07:03 PM WOW.dldr.2 (Trojan) 3/23/2007 9:07:03 PM WOW.PU (Trojan) 3/12/2007 10:04:28 PM Wow (Trojan) 12/21/2006 3:52:15 AM Spy.WOW-53 (Trojan) 12/15/2006 1:58:21 AM Spy.WOW-39 (Trojan) 10/27/2006 1:47:06 AM Spy.WOW-38 (Trojan) 10/18/2006 1:19:40 AM

SonicWALL has developed unique technologies to deliver zero day gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware and intrusion prevention signatures to its subscribers providing them the tools to defend against new and existing Internet attacks and exploits such as phishing, viruses, DHA or DoS attacks and more. To be protected against this malware, subscribers must have a current subscription to SonicWALL's gateway threat prevention services.

The FORTUNE Most Admired Companies study is considered the definitive report card on corporate reputations. The Hay Group, which conducts the survey each year, asks more than 16,000 executives, directors and analysts to evaluate companies in the FORTUNE 1,000 and similar-sized international companies operating in the U.S. The companies are rated on eight criteria from service quality to investment value in each industry.

With the repeat #2 ranking among the FORTUNE 1,000 IT companies Perot Systems continues steady progress towards becoming the most admired information technology company in the world, a goal set in 2000 by its chairman, Ross Perot, Jr.

"Being admired in our industry is an important measurement of not only the quality service we deliver but also our trustworthiness, integrity and dependability," said Ross Perot, Jr., chairman of Perot Systems Corporation. "And given the way Perot Systems is linked and integrated on a global basis, this ranking really reflects the strength and quality of our entire company."

The Most Admired Companies study ranks companies in the FORTUNE 1,000 based on the following eight attributes: people management, quality of management, social responsibility to the community and the environment, innovativeness, quality of products or services, wise use of corporate assets, financial soundness, and long-term investment value.

QUALCOMM Rejects Nokia's $20 Million Partial Payment Offer

SAN DIEGO, April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- QUALCOMM Incorporated yesterday notified Nokia that it has rejected Nokia's $20 million payment and the accompanying multiple pages of terms upon which Nokia conditioned its payment. Nokia tendered the money ostensibly as an advance payment of royalties to QUALCOMM for the quarter ending June 30. Both the amount of the payment and the terms that Nokia sought to unilaterally impose in connection with it are at odds with the parties' 2001 license agreement.

Nokia's attempted payment is a fraction of the royalty to which Nokia agreed in the arm's length negotiations leading to the parties' existing contract and for which Nokia bargained in obtaining the extension option. The attempted payment also represents only a small fraction of the well established value of QUALCOMM's patent portfolio -- a value which has been repeatedly validated by the more than 70 royalty-bearing WCDMA license agreements QUALCOMM has signed with the world's largest vendors of wireless products. Ironically, the royalty rate implied by Nokia's attempted payment is a mere fraction of the rates that Nokia itself seeks to impose when it attempts to enforce its patents (http://www.qualcomm.com/press/legalnewsroom/pdf/NokiaLicensingPositions.pdf).

Last week, QUALCOMM asked an arbitrator to rule that Nokia has elected to extend the terms of the 2001 license agreement, including Nokia's obligation to pay the agreed royalty rate, by its admitted use of QUALCOMM's patents in Nokia's WCDMA and CDMA products after April 9 (http://www.qualcomm.com/press/releases/2007/070405_files_arbitration_demand.html). QUALCOMM's agreement with Nokia requires that disputes relating to the agreement must be resolved through binding arbitration in Los Angeles.

QUALCOMM is concerned that Nokia continues to attempt to mislead the industry and the investment community. Nokia's statement today that "it has paid less than 3 per cent aggregate license fees on WCDMA handset sales under all its patent license agreements" and that such "WCDMA handset related royalty payments made by Nokia include all WCDMA handset royalty payments made to Qualcomm", if true, would mean that Nokia has seriously underpaid royalties owed to QUALCOMM under the parties' 2001 license agreement and is in material breach of the agreement. QUALCOMM will address this potential breach through legal and contractual channels.

QUALCOMM Incorporated (http://www.qualcomm.com/) is a leader in developing and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products and services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies. Headquartered in San Diego, Calif., QUALCOMM is included in the S&P 500 Index and is a 2006 FORTUNE 500(R) company traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market(R) under the ticker symbol QCOM.

Open Text to Host Major European User Conferences in Munich and LondonEurope's Largest ECM Software Company to Showcase Latest Solutions, Product Strategy and Roadmap at LiveLinkUp Europe 2007 Events

CHICAGO, April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Open Text(TM) Corporation , the largest independent provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software and solutions, said today that it will showcase its integrated product roadmap, new solutions and major partner initiatives in Europe at its LiveLinkUp Europe 2007 user conferences next week. Open Text, now Europe's largest ECM solutions provider, will hold two LiveLinkUp Europe 2007 events: In Munich, April 18, and in London, April 19.

Entitled: "ECM: Your Road to Innovation," the LiveLinkUp Europe conferences will bring together senior executives, corporate technology managers and executives from leading global organizations, who will converge and network with their peers, as well as the management, sales and marketing staff, and technical experts of Open Text. The events will include keynotes from Open Text senior executives, including Chairman and Chief Strategy Officer Tom Jenkins, and President and Chief Executive Officer John Shackleton.

The LiveLinkUp Europe 2007 conferences are the first combined European customer events of the new Open Text, bringing together both Open Text and former Hummingbird customers. The executive team will outline Open Text's strategic vision for ECM and unveil its latest solutions and product integration plans with Hummingbird products, as the company moves forward with a product and solution portfolio unmatched in the industry. In addition, RedDot, The Open Text Web Solutions Group, and Open Text's Hummingbird Connectivity(TM) division, will update delegates on their latest product initiatives.

A key focus for the events will be Livelink ECM 10, the next major release of Open Text's market leading ECM offering. First unveiled last November with capabilities being rolled out this year, Livelink ECM 10 lets customers implement a true enterprise-wide content management strategy to preserve and protect intellectual capital, leverage business content across all applications, and effectively address governance and regulatory compliance requirements. The conferences will allow Open Text to outline for customers how the broad new capabilities in Livelink ECM 10 will help them achieve enterprise transparency-moving beyond simply tracking and controlling information to leveraging it for business advantage.

Schwab Institutional Releases Report on the Link Between Effective Time Management and the Bottom Line for Advisory FirmsTime Management Seen as Essential as Advisory Firms Continue to Grow

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Across the independent advisor industry, firms are growing at an increasingly rapid pace, making time a valuable resource. The best-managed independent investment advisory firms typically work the same number of hours as their peers, but are more profitable and more productive because of effective management of principal and staff time, according to a new report published by Schwab Institutional. The white paper, Best-Managed Firms: It's About Time, examines the role that time management plays in the overall success of a firm and offers effective management techniques from top firms.

Schwab Institutional, in conjunction with Moss Adams LLP, the 12th largest accounting and consulting firm in the United States, developed the report, which was compiled from interviews with the principals of 45 "Best-Managed Firms." These firms represent the top 15 percent of independent, fee-based advisory firms surveyed in the 2006 Moss Adams Financial Performance Study of Advisory Firms, based on a composite score of firm profitability, productivity and leverage.

"What we have found in talking with advisors is that the most successful firms are tenacious about time management in the face of accelerating growth," said Deborah Doyle McWhinney, president of Schwab Institutional. "Both principals and staff at the advisory firms included in the report are not necessarily working harder; they are working smarter."

According to the report, staff time is usually the most significant cost for an advisory firm, averaging about 70 percent of all expenditures. The best-managed firms cited in the report have a clear understanding of their firm and staff capacity, whereas other firms can get caught in the trap of planning solely based on revenue growth without analyzing the costs attached to things like customer service and administrative activities. The growth leaders in the report allocate staff and principal time appropriately, scale and structure the firm so that it runs efficiently, institutionalize processes, and plan and measure results.

"Principals of best-managed firms are constantly working on and reshaping their business, as opposed to just working in their business day to day," said Dave Welling, vice president of strategic marketing programs at Schwab Institutional. "The firms that take the time to pause, plan and prioritize business and time management tend to avoid facing the dilemma of either working longer hours or sacrificing a high level of client service."

Time is on Your Side

According to Best-Managed Firms: It's About Time, the most successful firms in the industry recognize that time management is a business management issue, and deploy their resources accordingly. These firms use tactics ranging from strategic staffing, technology and outsourcing, to streamlining internal communication and workflow solutions in order to achieve maximum profitability. And it generally starts with the firm's principal. On average, owners of the best-managed firms, spend an additional 180 hours annually on client-facing activity and 24 percent less time on operations and portfolio management. The report found several key time management strategies that were common to principals of best-managed firms. These firm owners:

* Spend less time on operations and portfolio management and more on client service and business development * Measure capacity accurately and use streamlined, efficient processes to take full advantage of capacity * Hire more support and managerial staff per professional than do principals at other firms * Offer only what clients value * Standardize their service delivery * Automate or outsource routine tasks Overcoming Common Time Management Myths

The report also offers strategies for overcoming common myths regarding time management. For example, the report identifies the myth that every problem can be solved by simply working longer hours. In reality, according to the report's findings, the opposite can be true when employees reach or exceed their capacity limits and firms see decreasing returns on each additional hour worked. In addition, the report dispels the myth that every firm problem can be solved by the principal, explaining that owners should know when to delegate tasks and issues to their staff in order to make the best use of their time.

On average, owners who worked 60-hours per week, or 33 percent more than the industry average of 50-hours per week, only generated an 18 percent greater pretax income per owner. The conclusion: longer-working owners generated less income on an hourly basis, a median of $83 per hour, compared to $93 per hour for the others.

"If there is one key takeaway in the report, it is that advisor firms need to plan ahead and make business and time management a core part of their routine," notes Welling. "Busy advisors should be relieved to learn that achieving profitability, productivity and efficiency is not simply a matter of working longer hours, but without a solid commitment to consistently reevaluating time allocation as it relates to clearly defined business goals, it is just too easy to put it on the backburner."

This report is the latest in a series of Schwab Market Knowledge Tools(TM) (MKT) reports, an ongoing program of industry research reports, white papers and how-to guides from Schwab Institutional designed to keep investment advisors on the forefront of trends and competitive challenges facing the industry. Offered exclusively to Schwab Institutional clients, the MKT program delivers relevant and timely information for future business planning. The MKT reports are a part of Schwab Institutional's GrowthPoint(TM), a program that builds on Schwab's existing practice management solutions and takes a uniquely tailored, strategic approach to helping advisors build their businesses. GrowthPoint consists of three distinct service offerings: Marketing/Business Development, Business Strategy/Planning and Transition Services.

Raytheon Receives Approval for Precision Placement of NPOESS Antennae in Antarctica

AURORA, Colo., April 12, 2007 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon Company received approval of its environmental assessment from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for precision placement of two National Polar-orbiting Operational Environment Satellite System (NPOESS) Safety Net(TM) data-receipt antennae at the McMurdo Bay research station in Antarctica.

This milestone will enable construction to begin on the NPOESS antennae, or receptor sites, in McMurdo during the 2007-2008 Southern Hemisphere summer. With the harsh weather and remote polar environment, antennae placement is very difficult, and adequate planning is vital to complete this work on schedule.

NPOESS will monitor global environmental conditions and collect and disseminate data related to weather, atmosphere, oceans, land and near-space environment. SafetyNet, a major feature of the NPOESS ground system, is a unique and innovative network of 15 data-receipt antennae sites and fiber- optic communications around the world.

SafetyNet will provide the time-critical NPOESS data to civil, military and science users in fewer than 30 minutes, compared to current data delivery for U.S. polar-orbiting weather satellite systems, which requires more than two hours. The optimum for weather forecasting is to have the most minimal data delivery time possible, increasing the ability to forecast weather in a more timely and accurate manner.

"NPOESS data is vital for future weather analysis and forecasting to support military operations, civil applications and scientific research," said Mike Mader, vice president and NPOESS program lead for Raytheon Company. "The NSF approval of this environmental assessment culminates two years of Raytheon and government efforts to secure key worldwide NPOESS receptor sites and is further evidence that collaborations between the NPOESS Integrated Program Office, NSF and the Northrop Grumman-Raytheon team work well."

Raytheon Intelligence and Information Systems is part of the Northrop Grumman Corporation-NPOESS team. Northrop Grumman is the prime contractor and has overall responsibility for the program development effort.

Based in Garland, Texas, Raytheon IIS is a leading provider of information and intelligence solutions to the government. Raytheon IIS has annual revenues of approximately $2.6 billion and employs more than 8,000 engineering and technical professionals worldwide. Raytheon IIS recently achieved a strategic milestone in earning CMMI(R) (Capability Maturity Model Integration) Maturity Level 3 accreditation for the full model scope (System Engineering, Software Engineering, Integrated Product and Process Development, and Supplier Sourcing) across its enterprise.

Raytheon Company, with 2006 sales of $20.3 billion, is a technology leader specializing in defense, homeland security and other government markets throughout the world. With a history of innovation spanning more than 80 years, Raytheon provides state-of-the-art electronics, mission systems integration and other capabilities in the areas of sensing; effects; and command, control, communications and intelligence systems, as well as a broad range of mission support services.

AT&T Inc. Selected as the No. 1 Organization for Multicultural Business OpportunitiesCompany Receives Top Honor From DiversityBusiness.com for Outstanding Support of Women- and Minority-Owned Businesses

SAN ANTONIO, April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T Inc. today announced that the company will be recognized at a special awards luncheon this afternoon for its No. 1 ranking among DiversityBusiness.com's 2006 list of Top Organizations for Multicultural Business Opportunities, also known as the Div50.

This is the seventh consecutive year that AT&T has received this honor from DiversityBusiness.com -- AT&T has been included in the list every year since its inception. The former BellSouth Corp., acquired by AT&T in late 2006, ranked fifth among this year's Div50, thanks to its distinguished record of incorporating diversity businesses into its supply chain.

The awards luncheon, during which AT&T and the former BellSouth will be honored, is part of DiversityBusiness.com's 7th Annual National Multicultural Business Conference in Las Vegas, Nev. Steve McGaw, senior vice president- Wireless Supply Chain of AT&T, will accept the Top Organizations for Multicultural Business Opportunities award on behalf of both companies.

This year's Div50 was selected with help from more than 500,000 diversity- owned (women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans and other minority groups) businesses in the U.S., representing sectors such as technology, manufacturing, food service and professional services. The list is produced annually by DiversityBusiness.com, the nation's leading multicultural B-to-B Internet Web site, which links large organizational buyers to multicultural product and service suppliers.

"AT&T and the former BellSouth have both worked extremely hard to develop supplier- diversity programs that promote and improve business opportunities for women- and minority-owned businesses throughout their supply chains," said Maureen Merkle, president of Procurement, AT&T. "Now, together as the new AT&T, we are in an even stronger position to establish valuable partnerships with multicultural businesses, increase the competitiveness of our supply chain and strengthen our world-class diversity programs for the benefit of others in the marketplace."

Other recent honors for AT&T in the area of diversity include: -- Ranking third among DiversityInc's Top 50 Companies for Diversity, for the company's commitment to diversity in the workplace and marketplace. -- Achieving a place on the prestigious Top Companies for Minorities list, presented by The Diversity Network and Fortune magazine. -- Being named as one of the Top Corporations for Women's Business Enterprises by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (as both AT&T and BellSouth). -- Receiving the Outstanding Corporate Supplier Diversity Award from the National Minority Business Council (as BellSouth). -- Inclusion among HISPANIC Trends magazine's Top 50 Corporations for Supplier Diversity (as both AT&T and Cingular).

AT&T is a member of the Billion Dollar Roundtable, a supplier diversity think tank of corporations that spend more than $1 billion annually with diverse companies. Only 12 member companies qualify that this level. Supplier diversity is a critical initiative of AT&T's business strategy and a key component of the company's plan to deliver the best products and services to its customers. In 2006, AT&T spent $5.15 billion with diverse suppliers, representing 13 percent of the company's procurement base.
