Houston, TX-November 15, 2001

FutureSoft, Inc. today announced that the latest version of its Internet Filtering and Monitoring product, DynaComm i:filter, now has over 4 million categorized web sites, further solidifying the product's already number one position as the market's largest database of categorized web sites. The product's database is nearly twice the size of some competitors' offerings, giving companies wider and more accurate Internet filtering and access management.

Rick Mansel, President and CEO of FutureSoft commented, “As corporate Internet access continues to grow, so does the issue of non-work-related surfing and its impact on productivity and network bandwidth. DynaComm i:filter's industry-leading database helps companies eliminate non-business Internet activity, enhance productivity, maximize network bandwidth and minimize legal exposure.”

DynaComm i:filter monitors, filters, blocks and logs Internet traffic to individual workstations. In addition to the 4 million pre-categorized sites, administrators can add web sites and create their own category definitions to further customize the standard product. The product monitors HTTP (web), HTTPS (secure HTTP), FTP (file transfer) and NNTP (newsgroup) traffic. The product's highly intuitive Management Console provides a single point of control for all administrative functions and makes it easy for administrators to implement and enforce enterprise-wide Internet Access Policies.

DynaComm i:filter features comprehensive reporting capabilities with 42 pre-defined and customizable reports that can help model a company's Internet usage patterns by tracking personal usage, peak usage, usage by category, blocked requests by user, browse time by user and more.
