Sydney, Australia. (25 March, 1998). Fortify for Netscape, version 1.2.1,
has now been released on IBM OS/2, and is available for immediate download.
Fortify for Netscape is a system that provides world-wide, unconditional,
full strength, 128-bit encryption to users of Netscape's Web browsers. If
you routinely use Netscape's export grade Web browsers (i.e. the ones that
are available on the net), then you need Fortify.
Normally 128-bit Netscape browsers on OS/2 are only available to U.S. and
Canadian citizens, by mail order from IBM, at a cost of $US 15.00.
In comparison, Fortify is available without restriction from the Internet,
and it costs nothing to download and use. Nil. Zippo. Zilch. It currently
supports most, if not all, of the non-beta versions of Netscape Navigator
(2.0x and 3.0x) and Communicator (4.0x), that have been released on the
following platforms:-
DEC Unix (Alpha systems)
SGI Irix 5.x and 6.x (Mips systems)
Sun Solaris 2.x (Sparc systems)
Sun SunOS 4.1.3_U1 (Sparc systems)
BSD, FreeBSD and BSDI (Intel x86 systems)
Linux (Intel x86 systems)
Microsoft Win95 and WinNT (Intel x86 systems)
IBM OS/2 (Intel x86 systems) (+)
(+) On OS/2: Netscape v2.02, service levels 4 and 7 only.
Full details about availability, copyright, download sites, latest news,
and an FAQ guide can all be found at the Fortify web site:-
