Communicator:
Fortify V. 1.2.6 is Now
Available on OS/2



CLICK ME!


Fortify version 1.2.6 is now available on OS/2. This release adds
support for the first beta release of Netscape Communicator, v4.0b1.
It continues the tradition of making strong cryptography available to
all OS/2 users world-wide, without restriction, and at no cost. You
can download your copy of Fortify for OS/2 clicking the strongbox above.


Fortify is a program that provides world-wide, unconditional, full strength 128-bit
cryptography to users of Netscape Navigator (v3) and Communicator (v4). If you routinely use Netscape's export-grade web browsers, (i.e. the ones you can download from the Internet), then you need Fortify.

Fortify costs nothing to download and use. Nil. Zippo. Zilch. It is also freely re-distributable, except for one minor restriction on commercial re-distributions. Please refer to the Copyright for more details.

Is your platform or operating system missing from this list? Then now is your chance to cast a vote for your platform. Please take a few moments to fill in the Fortify feedback form, and indicate which operating system(s) you use.

Please Note: The Netscape beta and preview releases of Communicator may be supported from time to time, but, in general, there is no on-going guarantee that these editions are supported. Being preview releases they come in fairly low on the priority list, since they typically have short lifetimes, they are of a poorer quality, and they stretch resources disproportionately.

If you would like to see a particular preview release supported, feel free to say so, and keep an eye out for future announcements (or subscribe to the Fortify mailing list).
