last A/S was 500 million in 1997, companies directors sued for securities fraud . class action brought against same? sometime after? settlement offer approved in 2000. possible additional class action? settled in 2005?. info is scarce on this one so far. info i posted seems accurate as far as it goes but may be incomplete. non-filing as far as i can see, pinksheets has no info on the company, no news for the last 4 to 6 months that i have found. should i keep digging? does anyone care? FWIW!

it`s been almost 10 YEARS since the last PR. the class action suit brought by SAMSUNG in 99/2000 probably put them out of buisness. VERY RISKY PLAY!! these "ghost" runs happen once in a while, usualy drop back to nothing in a day or two! DO NOT RISK MORE THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE!! jmo!

Read the 8-k from January 1997, there are provisions for the shareholders in the event of a takeover that expire on Feb 8.
Maybe something is up.
""The plan provides our Board of Directors flexibility in dealing with any takeover action that might occur," said Shirman. "It would not impede any transaction that the Board feels is in the best interests of VideoLan and its shareholders. On the other hand, the dilutive consequences of triggering the rights should be a deterrent to actions that are not in the best interests of VideoLan and its shareholders."
The issuance of rights has no financial effect on VideoLan, is not dilutive to shareholders, is not taxable to the Company or its shareholders, and will not change the way in which VideoLan common shares are traded. Rights are not exercisable until the distribution date and will expire at the close of business on February 8, 2007, unless earlier redeemed by the Company.
