Revenue for the three months period ended September 30, 2001 increased 85% to
$113,460 as compared to $61,415 for the corresponding period of 2000. The
increase in revenue for the nine month and three month periods was due to a
$76,000 project received from a regular customer during the third quarter of the
current fiscal year.

          Cost of sales during the nine months period ended September 30, 2001
increased by $60,503 or 15.1% when compared to the similar period of 2000.
During the three months period ended September 2001 the cost of sales increased
by 60.6% to $143,002 as compared to $89,056 for the corresponding period in
2000. The large increase in cost of sales during the third quarter of the fiscal
year was due to the increase in sales volume during the quarter and due to work
interruptions associated with the September 11 terror attack which resulted in
costs overruns in the performance of projects during the quarter.

          Selling and Administrative expenses during the nine months period
ended September 30, 2001 increased by $13,808 or 11.7%.

          Interest income was lower by 45% during the nine months period ended
September 30, 2001 when compared to the similar period of 2000. The majority of
the interest income being recognized is from Data Probe, Inc. and it's note
payable to the Registrant. During the nine months period of the current fiscal
year Data Probe has reduced it's note payable to the Registrant by $52,570. (See
NOTE F of "Notes to Form 10-Q" contained in this report for additional
information).

          The Registrant had a loss of $(77,208) during the nine month period
ended September 30, 2001 as compared to a loss of $(60,901) in the similar
period of 2000. The Registrant also reported a loss of $(66,245) for the three
months period ending September 30, 2001 as compared to a loss of $(58,120) for
the same period of 2000. The losses in the current fiscal year are due to a
combination of two factors. First, during the second quarter of the fiscal year
the Registrant received a large project from a new client. That project incurred
large costs overruns that were not anticipated. Second, during the terror events
that occurred in September 2001 the Registrant incurred some unproductive costs
due to work interruptions.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.

          The Registrant incurred no capital expenditures during the current
fiscal year. The registrant does not anticipate any material capital
expenditures during the balance of fiscal year 2001.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

          The Registrant has diligently studied the impact of the year 2000 on
the software and services it sells as well as its own internal systems.

          It was concluded that the software and services provided by the
Registrant are Year 2000 compliant. The Registrant has, also, upgraded its
accounting and payroll systems to be fully compliant under the Year 2000
requirements.

          To date, the Registrant has not found any area where a Year 2000
compliance problem, with either its internal systems or outside providers, could
have a material adverse impact on any part of the Registrant's business
operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

          Working capital decreased by 76,791 in the first nine months of 2001
from a negative balance of ($161,072) at December 31, 2000 to a negative balance
of ($237,863) at September 30, 2001.

          There is no assurance that the stream of sales and revenue from the
Registrant's clients will continue. If additional profitable revenues cannot be
generated the Registrant will once again realize losses, and it's ability to
continue to operate would be severely affected in the absence of securing some
type of supplemental financing, the availability of which there can be no
assurance.

(NOTE A):
          The financial information contained in this Form 10-Q represents
condensed financial data and, therefore, does not include all footnote

should be read in conjunction with that report.

in order to present fairly the consolidated results of operations for the
interim periods.

          (2) The results of operations for the interim period ending September
30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the
year ending December 31, 2001.
