=== PRODUCT INFORMATION NOTICE - NEW NDIS IM SAMPLES ===

June 7, 2001 - PCAUSA has completed Beta testing of a new suite of NDIS
Intermediate (IM) driver samples that support Windows 2000 and Windows XP as
well as Windows NT.

The test period for these samples has been longer then for any other PCAUSA
product. The basic samples were "99.99-percent" functional in December,
2000. However, a number of fairly difficult problems related to specific
adapters were encountered that took a fair amount of work to accomodate.

The new samples allow single-source build of NDIS IM drivers for:

* Windows 2000
* Windows XP
* Windows NT 4.0

They include three samples at the end of the test period:

Active PassThru
===========
Although it is a "passthru" driver, this sample is capable of selectively
"cloning" packets instead of simply re-wrapping them. The cloned packets
include a flattened packet data array that can be easily modified, etc.

CryptoPing
========
This sample extends the Active PassThru sample to illustrate simple
encryption and decryption of selected packets.

Packet Redirector
============
This sample illustrates interception of slected packets and passing them to
a Win32 application for inspection, modification and re-insertion back into
the kernel-mode packet flow. In the most intrusive sample ALL IP packets can
be looped through a Win32 application.

The Windows 2000 and Windows XP NDIS IM driver samples can operate on
NDISWANIP adapter.

If you have an interest, you can visit the NDIS IM Beta site to see a little
more about the samples that have been developed and tested so far - as well
as the bugs that were encountered during the process. See:

We hope to have the documentation improved and the product "productionized"
soon.
