In other news, America Online announced on Thursday that it had acquired Mailblocks Inc., a personal, Web-based email service that incorporates technology to block spam and provide a streamlined and more efficient email user interface. The Los Altos, Ca-based Mailblocks was founded in 2002 and was commercially launched in March 2003 as an email service for both home users and small businesses. It is perhaps best know for developing challenge/response technology to combat unwanted junk email and authenticate legitimate email senders.

To end the week, Mark Cuban, an Internet investor, is backing a new Internet search engine that aims to take over where Google left off. Dallas-based upstart IceRocket is trying to throw a new twist on search results, along with some financial and advisory help from billionaire Cuban. The company is mixing its own Web search technology with "metasearch" features that tap into rival engines.

But it's hoping to set itself apart with features, such as more powerful image searching and an e-mail-based service that can be used on handhelds and other mobile devices.
