RG Software is On the GrOw !

March 24, 1995 -- RG Software Systems, Inc. of Scottsdale Arizona, one of
the early pioneers in the field of anti-virus software with its critically
acclaimed Vi-Spy product line, announced today that it has completed the
acquisition of Digital Dispatch, Inc.'s anti-virus software operations,
including an installed base of approximately 500,000 users.

DDI, a 13 year old Bloomington Minnesota company, was also one of the very
first companies to enter the anti-virus industry with its product, Data
Physician. With no formal marketing program in place, DDI was still able
to achieve sales of many large scale licenses to US and Canadian
governmental agencies and departments as "word of mouth" spread the news
of a good product and excellent support.

However, since DDI's primary operations have always been in the computer
training field, it has, for some time, been planning to withdraw from the
anti-virus market due to flat sales and the demands of ever-increasing
research and development costs due to the meteoric rise in the number of
viruses appearing on the scene.

"With the Data Physician product enjoying an excellent reputation among its
customers for quality and support, it was important for DDI to have its
customers go to a company who is also expert in this field and who has a
similar ethic towards providing exceptional quality product and support",
said Bill Kenny, spokesman for DDI.

"We have enjoyed a long and beneficial relationship with DDI during which
we have frequently exchanged information and ideas regarding the latest
techniques being used by virus authors and the technology needed to combat
them", commented Ray Glath, RG Software's founder and President, "and we
are delighted that DDI has chosen RG to supply our products to its
customers."

"For everyone concerned, this is a win-win situation", continued Glath.
"DDI returns to its roots as a training company; RG Software grows its
customer base; and, most importantly, DDI customers get continued service
and support for their anti-virus needs."

While the terms of the acquisition are not being disclosed, RG Software
will honor all existing DDI support contracts throughout their respective
periods, by converting those customers to its Vi-Spy product line at no
charge.

RG Software Systems was established in 1984 and has been at the forefront
of the anti-virus industry since it introduced Vi-Spy, the first
commercially-available anti-virus product, in 1989 The company regularly
updates its software portfolio which includes Vi-Spy Professional for
standalone computers and Vi-Spy Universal NIM, its platform-independent
networking product.
