Pressrelease: ManageBytes Software Announces ManageDesk 2.30

Protecting PC user privacy on and off line. May 24, 2004.

Digital privacy experts say that it is virtually impossible to protect one's privacy when using a computer without special tools. PrivacyWatcher is one of the very few privacy protection utilities that goes beyond ordinary protection tasks, like erasing Internet tracks, cleaning cookies, etc. While PrivacyWatcher does all of that (for Mozilla, Netscape, Opera and other browsers, in addition to MS Internet Explorer), the program offers a number of options, other software lacks.

Among them are desktop lockout (a feature that prevents unauthorized access to one's computer), secure file deletion (that makes "undeleting" impossible), and 448-bit Blowfish encryption. Another handy additional option is a startup manager - a small internal tool that prevents unwanted software applications from loading on startup.

The unique feature of PrivacyWatcher is that it is capable of erasing the list of recently used or accessed documents for Windows, Internet Explorer, Opera browser, Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Microsoft Visual Basic, Allaire HomeSite, Naviscope and other programs. Importantly, PrivacyWatcher comes with scripting support, so it can be easily set up to automatically "clean" certain files, folders or registry entries.

Program's interface is very straightforward and intuitive. In fact, the entire program can be configured in a minute. And there are customizable hotkeys that make managing the program easier then playing a game of solitaire.

PrivacyWatcher is distributed electronically over the Internet; free demo version is available at http://www.managebytes.com/pw/ for evaluation. The price of a single copy is 25.95 US Dollars.

ManageBytes Software is an independent software developer that develops utilities for Windows OS, like PrivacyWatcher and ManageDesk.
