The U.S. Embassy had predicted that up to 100,000 protesters could show up and advised Americans to avoid downtown Belgrade. The embassy was heavily guarded during the rally by special troops armed with machine guns wearing masks.

After February's mass rally, the U.S. Embassy was partly burned and protesters went on a looting spree, smashing shops and McDonald's restaurants. McDonald's was targeted again Tuesday night, and three people were arrested for smashing windows at one of its hamburger shops, police said.

Serbia's new, pro-Western government hopes Karadzic's arrest will strengthen the country's bid for membership in the European Union. Serbia had been accused of not searching for war crimes fugitives sought by the U.N. tribunal.

Isn't it ironic: Xerox is hoping it can profit by teaching companies how to reduce their printing.
