UpdateAgent X 10.1

INSIDER RELEASES UPDATEAGENT X 10.1
Leading Software Updater Improves FTP and HTTP Protocol Support

October 16, 2001 [Carlsbad, California] Insider UpdateAgent X version 10.1
was released today with support for Mac OS X 10.1, upgraded support for FTP
and HTTP protocols for downloading Macintosh application updaters, as well
as several maintenance fixes. The new release now contains direct support
for both protocols, attempting to download first via FTP, then via HTTP if
FTP fails. The five-mouse-rated Internet service brings all Macintosh
applications up-to-date-including traditional Mac Classic applications,
Classic apps carbonized for Mac OS X, and Cocoa applications written
specifically for Mac OS X systems.

“By providing support for both protocols within UpdateAgent X, we’re
delivering sure-fire performance and reliability,” commented Rio Sabadicci,
president of Insider Software. “This way we can guarantee that UpdateAgent
customers connect directly to our update servers with state-of-the-art
transmission protocols.”

PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
The new version of Insider UpdateAgent X is free to all existing users of
the updating service. New users can try a demo version that displays all
files required to bring a system’s applications up-to-date and downloads
free Mac OS updates. The full version downloads updaters for all
applications and costs $49.95 US for a full year of Internet-based updates.
Both versions are available for immediate download from Insider’s web site
at www.insidersoftware.com. For more information, users can send mail to
