An employee of ElcomSoft Ltd., a Russian software company that
recently developed a program capable of cracking PDF-based eBooks
security, has reportedly been detained by the FBI today after
attending a conference in the U.S. over the weekend, and apparently
was not allowed to leave on his scheduled flight to Moscow. Dmitry
