Sunbelt Software Announces Industry's First Unlimited Home Site License for Consumers

Tue Apr 1, 2008 10:00am EDT
  CLEARWATER, FL, Apr 01 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
 Sunbelt Software, a leading provider of Windows security and management
software,
today announced a new annual subscription licensing option for its entire line
of consumer security software products. The company's new unlimited home site
license for consumer security software is an industry first, where all PCs
in a single household are protected with a single site license. Already
available to consumers in single user and 3-user subscriptions, Sunbelt's
award-winning products, CounterSpy(TM), iHateSpam(TM), and Sunbelt Personal
Firewall(TM) now
can be purchased with the home site license option for each product.

    "Typical 'household' licenses offered for security software products limit
the
number of PCs protected to anywhere from three to five per household," said Alex
Eckelberry, president of Sunbelt Software. "With our unlimited home site
license,
customers pay one low annual subscription price for the product of their
choice for all the PCs in their home. We don't care if it's five, ten, or
200 computers.  One price covers all the computers located in that residence."

    Home Site License Pricing and Availability

    The following are the annual subscription prices for home site licenses
forSunbelt's consumer products:


iHateSpam                             $39.95

    Research led Sunbelt to new licensing model

    Sunbelt surveyed approximately 1,000 computer users earlier this year, and
found that 34% of users surveyed had more than three computers in their
household.  (21% responded with three computers, 28% responded with two
computers and 17% responded with one computer.  Respondents were obtained from
Sunbelt's database, and were predominantly "somewhat experienced," "advanced,"
and
"expert" users. The survey, along with the methodology, is available upon
request from Sunbelt.)
