Austin, TX, June 6, 2006 - Intego, the Macintosh security specialist, today announced the release of Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition. This comprehensive security suite provides thorough protection from the dangers of the Internet, protecting Mac users from hackers and viruses, and offering powerful spam and phishing protection.

Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition is also a native Intel-compatible security suite for Mac OS X Tiger. All three of its applications - NetBarrier X4, VirusBarrier X4 and Personal Antispam X4 - are fully compatible with both PowerPC and Intel processors, running native on Apple's new Intel-based Macs. In addition, this suite, with a value of nearly $190 if the programs are purchased individually, is sold for the unbeatable price of $89.95.

"We want to continue to offer our customers a choice of packages that meet their specific security needs," said Laurent Marteau, CEO, Intego. "This version of Internet Security Barrier protects against the three major dangers of the Internet: hackers, viruses and spam."

Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition includes many new features that take advantage of Apple's latest innovations: Intego widgets, for monitoring and updates; optimizations for Mac OS X 10.4, Tiger, for faster operations; and improved user interfaces. Intego's NetUpdate program, also included, provides automatic updates to the applications contained in the package, program filters and virus definitions. Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition also now uses a single serial number and installer for all three programs, making installation quick and easy.

Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition provides three key Intego programs in a single package at an unbeatable price. Selling for only $89.95, this security suite is available for less than 50% of the cost of purchasing the individual programs.
