WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., April 2, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) — United Online, Inc.
(Nasdaq:UNTD), a leading provider of value-priced Internet access through
its NetZero, Juno and BlueLight Internet consumer brands, today announced
the availability of a Mac version of its NetZero Platinum value-priced
Internet access service. The release of NetZero for Mac OS X follows on the

based on strong demand and feedback from the Mac user community.
NetZero Platinum for Mac offers Mac OS X users easy-to-use, reliable
Internet service with thousands of access numbers nationwide, fast
connections, compatibility with all of the most popular instant messaging
programs, and Web-based e-mail that is accessible from any Internet

Mac OS X is downloadable in 2 minutes by going to www.netzero.com.
“United Online now offers two brands of Internet access for Mac OS X users
creating greater selection and availability for consumers,” stated Brian
Woods, EVP and Chief Marketing Officer of United Online. “We have found

Internet access. Offering a NetZero branded service strongly supports the
company’s position as the emerging leader in the value-priced ISP segment
of the Mac market.”
