Harrison, New York, July 19, 1998 - InnoVal Systems Solutions is
pleased to announce that it has committed to build a native OS/2
version of Web Willy Watch for release by early September.

"The many encouraging emails from OS/2 users convinced us that it is
the right thing to do," said Dan Porter, President of InnoVal. "I
wanted to do it but I had to make sure that there was enough
interest. There is. We have come up with a plan that I think is right
for OS/2 users."

OS/2 users who also use Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT, may
order Web Willy Watch now and receive both the Windows version
immediately and the OS/2 version in early September at no additional
charge. In fact, we can process your order at http://www.webwilly.com
in five minutes and you can be up in running in 30 minutes. Web Willy
Watch is also available from BMT Micro at http://www.bmtmicro.com.

For Web Willy Watch, we are also announcing a Single Family License
and a unique, low-cost Every Family License for churches, synagogues,
K-12 schools, businesses, and membership organizations. The license
agreement will apply to both OS/2 and Windows platforms.

"We've put together new technology for blocking pornography sites
with an unusually attractive price and distribution concept," said
Porter. "As an example, if a school or concerned parent buys an Every
Family License for (or on behalf of) a school, then every parent with
a student in the school may download and use the software at home.
The school can put the software (OS/2 and Windows Versions) on a
school web page or a parent can do so on a personal web page. In
fact, the Every Family License grants the school a site license for
all OS/2 and Windows 95/98/NT computers in the school."

In order to block pornographic sites, Web Willy Watch checks to see
if the site is one of tens of thousands of known pornography sites.
It also evaluates page content looking for word patterns that suggest
that a site has inappropriate sexual content. The software can be
easily customized by parents to disallow additional sites, allow
certain sites, add key words, and adjust the sensitivity of the
program's word pattern logic. Extra features allow parents to block
numeric-only IP addresses, common among pornography sites, and pages
with 1-900 phone numbers. It is easy for someone with a password to
switch between secure and non-secure mode.

In addition to blocking pornography sites, Web Willy Watch may be
used to gather web content for offline browsing. The program can also
record the title and URL of every web site ever visited. In addition
to being useful for monitoring a child's web activity, this is a
useful feature for tracking down forgotten URL's that were not
bookmarked.

"Have you ever wanted to find a site you visited three or four months
ago," said Porter. "You didn't bookmark it, you don't recall the URL,
and it's one of those sites that is probably very low on search
engine lists. I've gotten so used to what I call bookmarks for the
rest of us,' that I can't imagine not having this feature on my
computer."

Web Willy Watch for Windows works with Netscape's browsers and the
Microsoft Internet Explorer. The OS/2 version will work with Netscape
browsers for OS/2. A Single Family License is $20.00. An Every Family
License for a K-12 school, church, or synagogue as well as for a
small business or membership organization, costs $159.00.

InnoVal is a leading producer of specialized software for the
Internet including the J Street Mailer, a Java email client, Post
Road Mailer, a popular native OS/2 email client, and Hacksaw. Hacksaw
is a popular 32-bit Windows and OS/2 file transfer utility.

Family licensing may be found at http://www.webwilly.com. An
