This scaling makes correlation invariant to changes in scale of the original variables, (which Akavall points out and gives an example of, +1). The scaling constant is the product of the standard deviations of the two variables. (2) If two variables are independent, their covariance is $0$. But, having a covariance of $0$ does not imply the variables are independent. This figure (from Wikipedia)
