  Microsoft says quitting chat over sex, junk mail
Time: 10:18 EST/15:18 GMT | News Source: Forbes.com | Posted By: Todd Richardson

Microsoft Corp. said on Wednesday it was shutting down its Internet chat rooms in 28 countries, saying the forums had become a haven for peddlers of junk e-mail and sex predators. But the announcement was seen by some analysts and on online message boards as having more to do with business and revenues than a moral crusade and would have no great impact on the seedier side of the chat room culture.
