McAFEE ASSOCIATES AND LEDBETTER UTILITIES ANNOUNCE SHAREWARE PARTNERSHIP Santa Clara, CA - August 20, 1992 - McAfee Associates, a leading developer of anti-virus utilities, today announced the integration of Keith Ledbetter's Utilities into its product line. The Ledbetter Utilities include a suite of three extremely popular shareware utility programs known as Supersonic Search Tool (WHEREIS, a file finder and Manipulator), LCD (a directory change utility), and LACE (a configuration control utility). McAfee Associates will enhance the functionality and provide all customer support, sales, and marketing for the products. Keith Ledbetter will continue to provide additional enhancements and product development support for the utilities. The first of McAfee Associates’ new utilities, TARGET (an enhanced version of Supersonic Search Tool), was released last week. TARGET is a powerful, multi- purpose file finder and manipulation utility. It can target selected files across all drives, including network drives, and can initiate actions on those files such as virus scanning, copying, renaming, re-grouping, deleting, archiving, and many other functions. It will search based on date ranges, file sizes, attributes, file extensions or duplicate files, and can use a variety of search masks - including regular expressions. For example, TARGET can be used to locate all .DOC files buried in sub-directories of local drives and file servers and incorporate them into a ZIP-archive file, and then delete all of the unarchived .DOC files. The remaining Ledbetter utilities LCD and LACE are currently being modified to provide additional features and functionality to users. These products will be released in the fourth quarter of 1992. McAfee Associates' CEO John McAfee stated that "We are extremely proud to add Keith's outstanding utilities to our product line," and added "We are committed to expanding our product offerings to include a broad range of solutions for our home, business, and government users. These solutions will include a family of PC utilities that will enrich users' productivity and data security." Bill McKiernan, McAfee President & COO, said "Our users tell us they like the flexibility of buying only the utilities they need. Our approach is to give users the choice of buying utilities separately or as a bundled package. Afterall, when you need a hammer, Sears doesn't force you to buy the whole tool kit." McAAFEE ASSOCIATES, LEDBETTER ANNOUNCE PARTNERSHIP Page 2 TARGET is currently available from McAfee Associates or any of its authorized agents world-wide. The product is licensed to homeusers for $20 which includes all updates for one year. Business, government, and other institutional users may license the product under a two-year site license agreement which includes free product updates during the term of the license. McAfee Associates intends to update the programs at least twice a year with additional features and functions.
