ALADDIN SHIPS SPRING CLEANING 3.5 – THE #1 MAC UNINSTALLER NOW INCLUDES
iCLEAN FOR FAST INTERNET FILE CLEANUP; FASTER, MORE FOCUSED SEARCHES

Spring Cleaning(tm) 3.5 Now Easily Cleans Accumulated Internet Cache Files,
Cookies, Histories, and More, Ensuring Net Privacy

Watsonville, CA-May 25, 2000 – Aladdin Systems, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Aladdin Systems Holdings, Inc. (OTC NQB: ALHI), today
announced Spring Cleaning 3.5 is now shipping. Spring Cleaning is the
number one uninstaller for the Macintosh and provides 13 powerful utilities
to help users clean and organize their hard drive by searching for and
removing unneeded files, folders, applications, and more. Spring Cleaning
3.5 now helps users easily rid their hard drives of unwanted
Internet-related clutter with its new iClean(tm) desktop tool. Spring
Cleaning 3.5’s searches are faster and more focused because of more
powerful search filtering, enhanced search options, and an improved
interface.

The popularity of the Internet has grown tremendously and it has been
reported that over 80% of Macintosh users are known to surf the Internet on
a regular basis. In a matter of weeks, users can accumulate thousands of
downloaded cache and cookie files without even realizing it. Not only do
these files hog disk space and slow performance, but also threaten a user’s
privacy.

“With today’s concerns over Internet privacy, Spring Cleaning’s new iClean
provides relief for avid Web surfers who want to ensure their Internet
tracks are securely removed,” said Pauline Shumake, product manager.

Spring Cleaning’s new iClean tool quickly sweeps away these private,
space-wasting files. Conveniently located on the desktop, iClean makes
regular maintenance a snap – just click to clean Internet clutter.

SPRING CLEANING 3.5 NEW FEATURES AND BENEFITS

New iClean Quickly Removes Internet Tracks iClean is a stand-alone, desktop
cleaning tool that sweeps away Web surfing tracks, as well as tidies up the
desktop. iClean cleans out Web cache files, Internet histories, cookies,
reattaches aliases, and empties the Trash. iClean gives users a detailed
summary of items that can be deleted and how many megabytes of space can be
recovered. Readily accessible without having to launch the Spring Cleaning
application, iClean is designed to be used after each Internet visit to
prevent leaving a history of visited sites for all to see.

Powerful Enhancements for Faster Cleaning Spring Cleaning’s new search
filter narrows searches using file modification dates, kind, size and
location for faster, more fine tuned results. When uninstalling
applications and their associated files, users can now either select from a
full search of programs, or browse just for a specific application, which
speeds the cleaning process. The Spring Cleaning results window is now
resizable, offering more information and is easier to view. Now users can
save and print lists created by searches for future cleaning and reference.
