Software Maker Told to Recall Programs: A federal judge in San Francisco ordered Delrina Corp. of Toronto to recall thousands of screen-saver programs that spoof the flying toasters made popular by a competitor. The order, issued Wednesday, means Delrina must recall roughly 12,500 copies of its program. Delrina has shipped the program throughout the United States and Canada. The ruling stemmed from a suit filed last month by Berkeley Systems Inc., which alleged the program violates the copyright on its own screen-saver, “After Dark.”
