Actually, they have. The OS/2 and Linux versions will be rewritten from source for the Windows version. As for 
Maccasoft, well their support leaves something to be desired. I purchased Webmirror from them with the 
understanding that it would be able to access sites using authentication, which it did not for the two I tried, 
making the product useless to me. I never heard back from them on whether they were going to fix this, or if I 
was doing something wrong. I also tried Internet Gate, which actually shows all supported ports as OPEN, 
practically inviting invaders to at least TRY something! Needless to say, I immediately purchased Injoy.
