/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Allume Systems, Inc., an IMSI company
(OTC:IMSI) (BULLETIN BOARD: IMSI) , today announced a free spyware
scanner for users to check their computer for invasive spyware,
identity theft and password copying software. The new IC Spyware
Scanner (TM) is downloadable at:
http://www.allume.com/win/spyscanner. "Scanning your system is the
first step to getting rid of spyware and Internet spies," said
Pauline Shumake, Senior Product Manager of Allume Systems, Inc.
"There is a false sense of security for many Internet users, many
think it's the Other person who gets spyware and or their identity
stolen, when in actuality it could be any Internet user. Now with
this free test, there are No Excuses not to check your system and
keep it safe. We introduced our spyware scanner because we know how
important it is to use a spyware scanner from a company you know
and trust." When users are ready to remove the spyware that has
been discovered, they can purchase Internet Cleanup for Windows
directly from the software, Allume website, or visiting one of our
retail partners. With the purchase of Internet Cleanup, users get a
one-year subscription of spyware profiles to provide continued
protection against new spyware products, at no additional charge.
Internet Cleanup goes beyond just protecting users from spyware and
identity theft, it includes a Personal Information Blocker that
safeguards names, phone numbers, addresses, credit card information
and bank account numbers. Internet Cleanup prevents these and other
specified pieces of information from being transmitted over the
Internet without users' permission. Internet Cleanup includes File
and Folder locking as well as Application locking features. Only
Internet Cleanup provides the user with all of the tools necessary
to protect their privacy and security, all in one complete and
integrated package. Internet Cleanup 4.0 protects users' privacy by
erasing their Internet data trail and permanently removing tracking
devices left on their computers by websites they have visited.
Users can easily set their level of banner ad and pop-up blocking.
Each time they start Internet Cleanup, the Statistics Report tells
them exactly what spyware is present on their PC, the number of
unwanted cookies and history files, their cache size, Active X
controls, recent list entries, and more. Internet Cleanup
effectively removes spyware and stops pop-up ads and web banners.
Pricing, Availability and Requirements The spyware scanner and
Internet Cleanup work on Windows, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, or XP, and
