Terra Lycos Removes Slanderous Statements from

IPVoice Message Board on Raging Bull

IPVoice Communications, Inc. (OTCBB:IPVO) (www.ipvoice.com) announces effort to end libelous and fraudulent anonymous postings on the internet. IPVoice management has logged hundreds of hours in recent months answering investors' inquiries in regard to the misrepresentations of some individuals consistently posting unfounded negative statements on various stock message boards. While IPVoice supports the free flow of information and opinion, it no longer will tolerate malicious and reckless abuse of the message board forum. In addition to responding to shareholders' inquiries, IPVoice will now proactively pursue violators with the single objective of stopping any future abuse. In just such an early effort, Terra Lycos (Nasdaq:TRLY) immediately terminated one violator's posting privileges on the IPVoice Message Board on Raging Bull after being notified of the issue.

"The abuse of message boards in a coordinated effort to achieve nefarious objectives has grown to epidemic proportions," states Philip Verges, CEO of IPVoice. "In general, the advance and proliferation of internet enabled investment tools has been tremendously empowering for the average individual investor. Unfortunately, those same tools have made the average investor easily susceptible to stock market abuse."
