Federal laws protect job seekers against most sweeping forms of discrimination, but these measures miss some types of bias and do not apply to companies with fewer than 15 employees; to fill in the gaps, each state has passed its own laws governing hiring practices; some states are more interventionist than others; for example, five states have laws protecting people who have had tests to determine their likelihood of developing life-threatening diseases; map (M)

Advertising has started to make an appearance into software--programs person pays for as well as free programs; for example, people who pay $60 to use Intuit's Quicken Deluxe 2000 financial software find that if they download stock quotes, portfolio update page will contain advertisements; in another example, users of Qualcomm's Eudora e-mail who want free upgrade to newest version will download software module that delivers advertisements to their screens; what is even more disconcerting about both Quicken and Eudora is not so much the ads, but that they flash and change regularly even when software user is not logged on to Internet; incorporating flashing banner ads into software is work of companies like Radiate Inc, Conducent Technologies and Cydoor Technologies, which help generate revenue for software makers by selling space on software to advertisers; photos of Web sites with software ads (M)
