Mr. Gordon Ross reports
The company's flagship product, Net Nanny version 3.1, is now being
distributed to all new Netcom Internet subscribers. The Toronto-based
Internet service provider (ISP), in an effort to enhance families' Internet
experiences, will initially distribute the child safety software to 15,000
of its new Internet subscribers, and will evaluate the purchase of
additional software licences based on demand.
"Worldwide, approximately one million people per month join the cyberspace
community," said Gordon Ross, chief executive officer and president of Net
Nanny. "Every additional distribution agreement we sign, such as this one
with Netcom Canada, helps more people feel confident about their Internet
experience and supports our ongoing goal of addressing this rapidly growing
market. As Internet usage grows, so does the need for vigilance against
unwanted material and security for personal information."
"We decided to choose Net Nanny's product because it offers our subscribers
strong, user-friendly and flexible content filtering tools that are
increasingly in demand as people sign up for Internet access," said Robert
Munro, Netcom's product manager. "We were also very impressed with the
timely and attentive responses we received from the Net Nanny organization
to questions and issues that arose during the negotiation process."
Netcom is one of Canada's largest and most reliable Internet companies.
Leveraging years of Internet experience, Netcom's goal is to deliver
quality, simplicity and value to its customers, enabling them to harness
the power of the Internet for their business or home use. It was the first
Internet company to offer flat-rate service in Canada, the first to offer
nationwide 56Kbps access and the first to offer a 99.5 per cent performance
guarantee for business services.
WARNING: The company relies upon litigation protection for
"forward-looking" statements.
