Fast and Easy to Use, click2send.com Takes Part in Cisco Hosted

Application Initiative, Providing Small- and Medium-Sized Businesses

With Powerful Business Applications

click2send.com, Inc.(TM) and Cisco Systems, Inc. today announced an alliance that will use the Internet to give small- and medium-sized companies the ability to send business documents, presentations and multimedia files to anyone in the world.

Growing businesses will now be able to utilize Cisco's high-performance Internet connectivity and security solutions to send files of any size to anyone, anywhere via click2send.com(TM). This alliance is part of Cisco's recently announced Hosted Application Initiative that connects small- and medium-sized businesses to mission-critical applications offered through application service providers (ASPs) and software vendors. With this announcement, businesses are able to focus on growing their business, not the technology it takes to run it.

The Internet is ready for business applications. The click2send(TM)/Cisco alliance utilizes the power of the Internet to help growing businesses realize their potential by using their native technology tools to send information over the Internet. With click2send.com, businesses can now send presentations, spreadsheets and video clips via the Internet at no cost, without having to purchase expensive proprietary groupware applications. Small businesses can now focus on growing at their own pace without making costly infrastructure investments to connect their organizations.

"click2send is thrilled to have Cisco as one of our first corporate alliances," said Charlene Steele Vaughn, president and CEO of click2send. "click2send strives to provide businesses with fast, easy and free online document transfer. Cisco is at the forefront of Internet and Web-hosting performance. This alliance offers our customers the fastest online document transfer possible by utilizing the high bandwidth infrastructure at AboveNet Communications, a Cisco Powered Network."

"click2send is a logical member for Cisco's Hosted Application Initiative," said Eugene Lee, vice president of small/medium business marketing for Cisco Systems. "This partnership marries Cisco's end-to-end intelligent Internet infrastructure with click2send's high-speed Web-based document transfer capabilities via AboveNet. Small- and medium-sized businesses (SMB) no longer need to spend time and money on costly infrastructure investments, and can now realize the cost benefit of using Web-based business applications to run their organizations."

click2send is the first free Web-based service for sending digital files that does not require proprietary software. At no cost, anyone can set up a secure click2send Safe Deposit Box(TM) in a matter of seconds, upload a file for deposit and compose a message to recipients. click2send then delivers the message by email to intended recipients, directing them to the click2send Safe Deposit Box where the file awaits pick up. From the email, recipients link directly to the file where they are able to either open the file or save it to disk locally.

Executives in Fortune 1000 companies and SMBs are already enjoying the benefits of transferring files via click2send.

Built for ease-of-use, click2send.com offers the following benefits and corresponding features:

--   Simple set-up: Users can either create a new click2send Safe
     Deposit Box or select an existing box. Box setup is as simple as
     naming the box and making a deposit key. Once the box is created,
     senders select the file for deposit from their hard drive or
     network. A single safe deposit box can hold one or multiple files
     with a combined memory of 120MB. Each box lists names of the
     files included, their size, the date the file was uploaded, and
     the number of days before the file expires. Clicking on an icon
     to the left of the file allows people picking up the file to
     either save it or open it in an active window.

--   Easy file pick-up: Senders draft a message alerting recipients to
     the nature of the file they are depositing. After the file is
     deposited, the message is sent to the email addresses of their
     intended recipients. The resulting message includes a
     click2send-generated hyperlink that leads directly to the
     click2send Safe Deposit Box holding the file. Senders are able to
     enter multiple email addresses for notice.

--   Immediate viewing: If a Microsoft application file is opened
     using Internet Explorer version 4.0 or higher, it will launch
     directly in the click2send.com browser using Microsoft Office
     components on the desktop.

--   Secure Access: To secure the management, delivery and access to
     files in click2send Safe Deposit Boxes, users can assign
     keys/passwords to entire boxes or individual files.

--   Flexible file expiration: Senders can designate the number of
     days that any file will be accessible. Unless otherwise
     specified, all files expire after 10 days.

--   Pick-up confirmation: Senders can choose to receive an email
     anytime that a file is picked up, allowing them to know when a
     file was received.
