Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention provide solutions (including inter alia, systems, methods and software) for dealing with online fraud. Some embodiments function to access and/or obtain information from (and/or receive data from) a data source; the data might, for example, indicate a possible instance of online fraud. Certain embodiments, therefore, can be configured to analyze the data, e.g., to determine whether the data indicate a likely instance of online fraud. Such instances may be further investigated, and/or a response may be initiated. Data sources can include, without limitation, web pages, email messages, online chat sessions, domain zone files, newsgroup (and/or posting thereto), etc. Data obtained from the data sources can include, without limitation, suspect domain registrations, uniform resources locators, references to trademarks, advertisements, etc.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention provide solutions, including systems, methods and software, for dealing with unethical uses of electronic mail, and in particular, with attempts to use email messages to facilitate online fraud. Some embodiments function to gather a set of at least one incoming email message, analyze that incoming message, categorize the message as a categorize the incoming email message as a fraudulent email message. Other embodiments can investigate the uniform resource locator included with the incoming email message to determine information about a server hosting the web site referenced by the uniform resource locator and pursue a response to a fraudulent attempt to collect personal information. In some cases, responses may be administrative and/or technical in nature.

Abstract: A system for searching and reporting an incidence of at least one trademark, tradename, celebrity name, and/or famous name on the Internet, which includes a computer system having a connection to the Internet, and a software program executing on the computer system. The software program is adapted to receive an input of at least one trademark, tradename, celebrity name, and famous name to be searched. The software program then creates a search string including at least one trademark, tradename, celebrity name, and famous name. The software program also receives a URL address of a Web page on the Internet to be searched. The software program accesses and searches the Web page for hits corresponding to the search string, and then provides the search results of identified hits within the Web page.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide navigation lights for skiboats and methods of using the same. In a set of embodiments, a navigation light may be configured to cast light in an arc of the horizon in 360 degrees. In accordance with some embodiments, the navigation light thus may be configured to be mounted at or near a top portion of a tow tower. In a set of embodiments, the navigation light may be configured to use battery power. Merely by way of example, in some embodiments, the navigation light may be adapted to hold four AA-size batteries and/or may be configured to operate using the ?6VDC provided by such batteries. In other embodiments, the navigation light may be configured to operate using power the boat's electrical system. In yet other embodiments, the navigation light may be configured to use power from both batteries and the boat's electrical system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide improved water sports equipment racks and methods for their use. In an set of embodiments, device (such as a rack, for example) for holding one or more pieces of water sports equipment is provided. The rack might have a first pair of forks having parallel prongs adapted to hold one or more water skis, wakeboards, and or the like. In some embodiments, the rack might further comprise a second pair of forks adapted to hold a surfboard. Merely by way of example, each member of the second pair of forks might comprise an upper support surface and a lower support surface disposed approximately parallel with the upper support surface. The upper support surface and lower support surface can be spaces to accommodate a surfboard therebetween. Other embodiments provide methods of using and/or modifying water sports equipment racks.
