Laplink Software Releases Laplink Everywhere 4, the First Truly Flexible Solution for Remote PC Access

Laplink Everywhere 4 is the first product to combine advanced remote control and an exclusive remote access option that brings PC users true "Anytime, Anywhere Remote Access."

Kirkland, WA-April 27, 2005 - The latest release of Laplink Everywhere brings greater choice and flexibility to people who need to connect to a remote PC. By combining superior remote control and a unique web interface for streamlined remote access, Laplink Everywhere 4 lets you connect to your remote PC quickly and easily from the widest range of computers and handheld devices, delivering true "Anytime, Anywhere Remote Access to Your PC".

Unlike ordinary web-based remote control applications, Laplink Everywhere 4 gives you the option of selecting a remote access interface that gives you streamlined access to your files, email, calendar, contacts, notes, tasks, and Internet favorites. You can also perform swift and accurate remote desktop searches using any web browser.

"Laplink Everywhere 4 brings you the best of both worlds," explains Thomas Koll, CEO. "The remote control component compares with major brands such as GoToMyPC, but the product also includes a remote access web interface that extends the product's functionality far beyond anything our competitors offer, allowing you to remotely access your PC through any device that has a web browser, even PDAs and Smartphones."

This latest release continues to make security a priority, offering connectivity through existing firewall and router configurations, 128-bit SSL encryption for secure data transmission, and "zero footprint" technology that keeps your identity and data safe, even on a shared or public computer.

Laplink Everywhere 4's advanced functionality includes:

Web-based remote control to access your remote PC. Regardless of the operating system or browser on the local computer, you can remotely control your distant PC. Laplink Everywhere 4 integrates Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol and extends Microsoft Remote Desktop functionality, allowing you to remotely control Windows XP Professional and Windows Server 2000/2003 machines over the Internet and through firewalls with no special configuration.

Remote Google Desktop Search. Now you can quickly locate the files, email, and even archived instant messages you need from your remote PC using the power of Google Desktop Search, even with a web-enabled mobile device. You can then act on the search results via the browser to view and respond to emails or to open or securely send any size or type of file as a click-and-download link.

Remote access from local computers that don't allow plug-ins or ActiveX Control Downloads. When a remote control plug-in or ActiveX control can't be downloaded to the computer you are using to connect to your remote PC, you can use the web interface to access data such as files, email, and Outlook data.

Extended handheld compatibility. Laplink Everywhere 4 brings remote PC access to any web-enabled Pocket PC, Windows Mobile, Palm or Symbian device.

Fast remote access, even with a dial-up connection. Instead of launching a data-heavy remote control session, which requires a broadband connection for optimal performance, you can get fast access your files, email, and Outlook data from any web-enabled device using the streamlined web interface.

Laplink Companion for handheld devices. Download email and Outlook data from your remote PC while online and respond while offline. All offline activity is automatically executed when you're next online.

"The remote control functionality in Laplink Everywhere 4 matches the competition for speed and responsiveness," says David Hayden, President/CEO of MobileWeek. "But what makes the product unique is the feature-rich remote access web interface. Having both options available in one product make this a compelling, all-purpose solution to the challenges of staying connected to your PC."

Laplink Everywhere 4 remains the most cost-effective remote control solution available, with prices starting at $8.95 per month or $44.95 per year. Laplink Everywhere 4 is available as a 15-day trial from www.ll2go.com or www.laplink.com.
