I apologize for this intrusion into your affairs. Please forgive but we do have important information that will be of interest to Internet users. Would you like to secure your hard disk files against compromise by Internet Interlopers? Would you like to communicate over Internet in absolute privacy? We can provide you with the tools necessary to do those two things in an absolute sense. Briefly, we have developed the first software sourced OTP, which is provably as good as any hardware sourced OTP that can possibly be be generated. Most experts thought that this could not be done, but we have done it, and can prove it. Our prices are: - $95.00 for a complete dual user system, the full package for two users, but your communications are limited to that single user - - $95.00 for a complete Elita unlimited usage system - that is you can protect your internal files, and communicate with anyone else that has an Elita system, or more comprehensive Ultima system below. - $195.00 for a complete Ultima Internet/intranets system, this allows user to protect their own files - communicate with anyone that has an Ultima, or an Elita, system - to form hierarchal work groups that provide the same protection - and to customize their system variables to achieve the maximum entropy. We are also going to open up the whole company for outside participation - it is going to a completely open Internet Distributive Company, we believe the first one of its kind. Anyone is welcome to participate in the venture. All marketing is to be done on an lucrative MLM basis, program development will be done on a royalty/commission on adjusted gross income basis. Everyone that participates will share in the rewards. System testing will also be handle in a similar manner, and system engineering will be handled on a fee for services and participation basis. If you can perform, you can win big, really big. If you just try to perform, you will still win. This is an important opportunity for you, take advantage of it at this most opportune time, To order, call us at 817-691- 1081, or write to us at 2629 Plaza Parkway, Suite B-20, Wichita Falls, Texas, or order through Internet or e-mail us at: ipgsales@netprivacy.com. For more details, visit our web site at: http://www.netprivacy.com Our apologies again, but we believe it to be important.
