Press Release Body = GetData Launches RunSafe Pro Providing Unlimited Security As
Limited User

GetData Software Company has launched a simple but powerful desktop drag-and-drop
security tool - providing high level security for applications that access the
internet.

Sydney company GetData's RunSafe Pro allows computer users to drag-and-drop an
unlimited number of application icons into its desktop security window, providing
high level security against viruses, malware and hackers.

To launch RunSafe Pro (US$19.95), GetData is offering a free version of the basic
program, RunSafe, from the RunSafe website (www.runsafe.com) which allows up to
three applications to be dragged in to the RunSafe desktop window.

RunSafe Pro provides a special security window to get around the vulnerability a
user faces running their computer in the default "administrator" mode.

"One of the greatest security risks to home and small business PC users is that most
of us log into our computers with Administrator Access user permissions which leaves
you vulnerable despite various 'protection' software that you might be using,"
explained GetData director Graham Henley.

The following are the recommended programs to drag and drop in to RunSafe desktop
security window for optimum security:

MS Messenger, Skype, Outlook, Outlook Express, Azureus, Poco Mail, Firefox
Internet Explorer, Opera, Windows Media Player, iTunes, QuickTime Player, WinAMP
FileZilla, WinRAR, WinZIP.

It also provides security for Chat programs (e.g.. MSN, Yahoo Chat, ICQ, Instant
messenger, GAIM etc.).

How To Test This Additional Security

You can test this additional security, which allows you to run your computer, not as
a potentially vulnerable Administrator but as a Limited User, by running Outlook
from within RunSafe and trying to open an attachment.

You should be prompted by a window that asks you for approval to open the attachment.

"Runsafe has detected a secure program. Do you want to allow this?"

You have three options - Always Allow, Allow or Block.

Normally, you would simply click Allow. But if you are confident that you trust the
running program (e.g Adobe), then you may choose to click Always allow.

Go to www.runsafe.com to download the FREE version (limit of three application icons).
