HOTBAR ANNOUNCES NEW PRODUCT VERSION 4.1
New York, NY, November 1, 2002 - Hotbar announced today the release of its new software product, Version 4.1, which integrates Hotbar's current email toolbar and the company's Web browser, called Smart Toolbar, applications. The improved version enables Web-based customers the convenience to use all of Hotbar's email enhancements from within their browser, including Yahoo! and Hotmail. Previously, only users of Outlook or Outlook Express could download Hotbar's email features.
Hotbar's email toolbar software allows the user to personalize their emails by providing background graphics, eCards, business cards, animations and Web skins into the email.
The addition of version 4.0 represents an expansion of the company's core product – the Smart Toolbar -- Hotbar's Smart Toolbar is a patent pending add-on that brings the Internet to a user's browser. The Smart Toolbar categorizes over 2.5 million sites into approximately 2,000 major categories and over 200,000 sub-categories, all of which appear through Smart Buttons. Hotbar's Smart Buttons adjust to provide information relevant to the site that the user is currently surfing.
"Before we introduced Version 4.1, our email enhancement software was only accessible to users equipped with Outlook," said Oren Dobronsky, Co-founder and CEO of Hotbar. "With Version 4.1, Hotbar is expanding the reach of its email enhancements to a wider group of Web users, thereby improving their time spent on the Web."
