Looks like the website has comme - waltech.com

" Do you want to know the secret to the Year 2000(Y2K) bug? It's that there is no silver
bullet. Not one company in the world, no matter how good they are has the one solution to any
one platform. The technical problems are either too diverse or there are laws preventing anyone
other than the original authors from fixing the problem. In other words no one but Microsoft is
capable of, or for that matter allowed to, fix Microsoft software and no one but NOVELL can fix
NOVELL software.

To make matters worse there are hundreds if not thousands of programs on every computer
that need to be verified Y2K compliant. And even if you kept a complete log of every program
on a computer there are still hundreds more you don't know about that the computer needs to
function.

After you think you found all of the programs, you then have to hunt down every software
company responsible for the bugs (sometimes 2 or 3 each) and find their patch ,assuming one
exists. Then keep checking back with these software companies for further upgrades, and
patches to their patches.

For a lone user, with only one computer, this is a monstrous task, for a MIS or Network
Administrator it's impossible. There isn't enough time to do it all, or for that matter any of it.
Enter 11th Hour. 11th Hour is a diagnostic program that searches through every file, EVERY
FILE, and compares it to its proprietary database for Y2K compliance, upon discovering a
noncompliant file or program it notifies you and tells you where to retrieve the patch, if one
exists. Even if a program isn't listed, don't worry, the program database is always growing.
Just visit this website and download the latest edition, free.

Currently we are engaged in beta testing our software. If you are
interested click to our beta program registration center, and receive a free
copy of 11th Hour. All we ask is that if you use it you help us find those
embarrassing little bugs, like say using a 2 digit date field.

For questions or comments email us at 11thhr@usa.net."
