INTEGO ANNOUNCES CONTENTBARRIER 1.0 FOR THE MAC

Blocks All Offensive Material from the Internet

San Francisco, CA, January 9, 2001 -- Intego, a leading provider of
Macintosh Internet security utilities, today announced ContentBarrier
thorough and efficient Internet filtering software for Macintosh.
ContentBarrier 1.0 helps parents protect their children by monitoring
Internet usage to avoid contact with dangerous web sites, chat rooms,
email, newsgroups, and downloads.

ContentBarrier allows parents to select or customize specific categories of
potential danger; log Internet usage; control access days and times; and
receive email alerts when certain activity occurs. Priced at $39,
ContentBarrier works with multiple users, so if there are several children
in a household, different criteria can be set according to their age.

ContentBarrier has a high-performance content filter engine for
sophisticated filtering. Its pre-defined categories let you choose what you
don't want your children to see. Inappropriate web sites are blocked,
shielding your children from things they are too young for.

ContentBarrier also supports the new version of Intego's NetUpdate, the
automatic software update engine. Users can program updates for specific
days and times, and NetUpdate will check the Intego server to find out if
updates are available for all of Intego's Barrier products installed on
your computer.

Intego's programs have received many awards in the U.S., Europe, and Asia,
such as awards from Macworld, MacHome, MacNN, MacAddict. In France,
UniversMacWorld recently gave NetBarrier their 2000 trophy for the best
Internet program.

"When children surf the Internet, they can see whatever they want, unless a
parent is there to watch over their shoulders," said Laurent Marteau, CEO,
Intego. "ContentBarrier sets up a protective wall around your computer
making the Internet a safer place for children."

ContentBarrier Features:

* Blocks and filters all offensive material from the Internet
* Multiple users-if you have several children, you can adjust the settings
for their age and maturity
* Multiple levels of protection
* Pre-determined categories for safe and easy content filtering (sexually
explicit sites, violence, hate/racism, online chat, etc.)
* Limits Internet access by day and time
* Allows you to inspect your child's computer and make a full inventory of
all pictures, movies, music files or web pages
* Anti-predator function to block predatory language in chat sessions
* Trusted site selection-you can set the program to block all sites except
those you select
* Keeps a detailed log of each user's Internet sessions.
* Records traffic data for an overview of Internet use
* Automatic updates with Intego's NetUpdate function
* Password protection to prevent unauthorized users from changing program
settings
* Automatic e-mail notification of certain events

ContentBarrier is also used by companies to restrict inappropriate employee
web site usage.
Many employees do their shopping on the Internet, play network games, send
and receive personal e-mail or download MP3 files while at work, reducing
productivity and using valuable network bandwidth. ContentBarrier can solve
this problem by blocking access to many different types of sites, and
contains specific categories of web sites designed for business use.

If your employees spend their working time surfing sexually explicit sites,
this not only reduces productivity, but it may even expose you to liability
for sexual harassment. Sending private e-mail over your mail server can
also expose you to liability, and even prosecution, since your business is
responsible for what circulates on its network.

ContentBarrier Business Features

* Helps increase productivity
* Optimizes bandwidth
* Protects your company from liability

processor, OpenTransport, Mac OS 8.1 or higher, and 32 MB RAM. It is also
compatible with Mac OS 9.1. A Mac OS X version will be available Q1 2001.
