180solutions withdraws lawsuit against ZoneAlarm
180solutions
has withdrawn its November 2005 lawsuit against CheckPoint Software's ZoneAlarm. The lawsuit had attempted to influence how ZoneAlarm classified products from 180solutions and Zango, but ZoneAlarm stated in a press release that it has not changed how it classifies those products. For example: "Zango is attempting to monitor user activities on your computer. If allowed, it may try to track or log keystrokes (user input), mouse movements/clicks, Web sites visited, and other user behaviors." 180solutions did not provide a reason for withdrawing its lawsuit.
