Item 4.01    CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

On October 24, 2008, we dismissed Pender Newkirk & Company LLP ("Pender") as our independent registered public accounting firm. Concurrent with this action on the same date, our audit committee appointed Stonefield Josephson, Inc. ("Stonefield") as our new independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to change accountants was approved by the audit committee and ratified by the Board of Directors.

The audit report of Pender on the financial statements of clickNsettle.com, Inc. as of and for the year ended June 30, 2008, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the period from October 3, 2007, the date we hired Pender, to the end of the most recent fiscal year on June 30, 2008 and from July 1, 2008 to the date of our dismissal of Pender, there have been no disagreements with Pender on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which if not resolved to Pender's satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports. During the same period, there have been no reportable events, as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

We provided Pender with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. A copy of a letter from Pender to the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated October 24, 2008, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Report. During the two most recent fiscal years, and the subsequent interim period prior to engaging Stonefield, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Stonefield regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and no written or oral advice was provided by Stonefield that was a factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issues as set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
