Xfire's Yahoo! Countersuit

Xfire Files Countersuit Against Yahoo is the press release with the latest on the legal tangle between the Xfire gamer's messaging utility and Yahoo! Here's the deal:

MENLO PARK, Calif., March 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Xfire(TM) Inc., the fastest growing online gaming platform and community, announced today it has filed an answer and countersuit in United States District Court in response to a lawsuit filed by Yahoo Inc.

Yahoo had previously filed a lawsuit against Xfire for allegedly infringing U.S. patent number 6,699,125 (the '125 patent). In today's filing Xfire refutes all allegations that it is infringing Yahoo's patent. In addition, Xfire has filed a countersuit stating that the Yahoo lawsuit is an attempt to drive Xfire out of business (and therefore avoid direct competition in the marketplace) or to force Xfire to sell or license its proprietary technology to Yahoo for far less than fair market value to settle the expensive litigation.
