Verisign has made a mistake in the purchase of their mobile business (mqube) but has sold their assets and is now on the way back to what they are good at (internet security).
They have a vested interest in making mobile security work and i believe they are well placed to make this happen.

The government isn't going to mess with the internet root domain operators with the economy the way it is. This stock will soar when it is cleared of the ICANN issues. The sooner the better.

The internet is growing, and sites wanting to make money need to reassure customers of their safety.

Long-term, the internet's potential and growth will cause this company to earn well, and overcome its debt. Short-term is anyone's guess.

Internet is the core business of this era. There is no way

we can live without Internet. It is a kind of energy that people need to live. The more number of business grow, the more number of internet domain is required. In few years, there will be a domain name for each family. Just like phone.

Look for new mgmnt team to get company back on track and improve margins. See their Security certificates as becoming more meaningful. Also look for stronger presence in mobile connectivity and security.

Internet & wireless security is becoming a must, not an option. Verisign is well positioned in all areas. It seems to be headed on a climb to challange its all time highs. PE is a bit frothy but I believe it will grow its earnings. This should be a good long term hold.
