New Rev The Web Offers Travelers Much Faster Internet Connections

ON THE ROAD AGAIN? NEW Rev The Web " INTERNET ACCELERATOR OFFERS TRAVELERS MUCH FASTER WEB CONNECTIONS

New Free Service Provides 5 Times Speed Improvement for Web Surfing, Email, Downloads, and More

WESTPORT, Conn., May 9, 2005 _ Anyone who travels with a laptop knows that Internet connections in hotels and airport lounges can be very slow. Hotels often offer travelers only a dial-up line; but even if broadband is available, the speed can be impeded by contention from other users. Rev The Web, a new Internet accelerator, is a free and easy way for travelers to increase their Internet access speed while traveling around the U.S. or around the world.

Rev The Web can benefit travelers by increasing their Internet access speed an average of five times if they find themselves in a hotel room that only offers dial-up access. For those surfers who do have DSL or cable modem access while on the road, Rev The Web can speed their Internet access three fold on average, a noticeable difference especially when downloading graphics-rich web pages, such as maps or travel sites. The service also works with ISDN, wireless and satellite, and with nearly all Internet Service Providers.

"Whether you're a busy road warrior trying to download important presentations or spreadsheets from an airport lounge or a vacationer who simply wants to check email but doesn't want to waste hours of time, Rev The Web should be installed on your laptop," said Irv Lebovics, Senior Vice President of Sales, Artera Group, Inc. "With this free service, travelers can speed any Internet connection they are offered, increasing efficiency and reducing the stress of staying connected while away from home or the office."

Unlike other programs that simply "tweak" Windows® settings to address modem speeds, Rev The Web is a comprehensive service that uses patent- pending technology to compress and optimize the data that is being served by the Web. The service is free and can be accessed at www.revtheweb.com. It is quick to download and simple to install. Technical support for the new service is available on the website and includes a click-to-chat option.

Rev The Web comes with parental control features that allow parents to determine the websites that are acceptable for their children to visit. It also offers a speed test with which users can test their surfing speed, illustrating how much faster they are accessing the Internet with Rev The Web.

In return for the free service, users fill out a ten-question survey about their interests and will be served non-intrusive advertising based on this information. Rev The Web protects users' privacy by not collecting any name, address or phone number data. Rev The Web users also have access to a special shopping portal called "Just For You" that offers customized deals in a variety of categories based on the consumer's interests.

If at any time a user no long wishes to receive ads but still wants to take advantage of the speed benefits of Rev The Web, they can switch to the premium version of the service for $2.95 per month. Benefits of the premium version include:

· Protecting the PC from unauthorized access by providing an ultra- secure firewall.
· Improving the way email works by accelerating the delivery of email and the downloading of email attachments such as Microsoft® Word® and PowerPoint® documents.
· Blocking website ads, further speeding up the Internet surfing experience.

System requirements of the Rev The Web Service are: Microsoft® Internet Explorer version 5.0 or above; Pentium® II or higher ; Celeron® 500Mhz or higher; 64MB of RAM or more; and 20 MB of free disk space.
