MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue for the nine months period ended September 30, 2002 decreased
by 61% to $195,963 as compared to $500,290 for the corresponding period of 2001.
Revenue for the three months period ended September 30, 2002 decreased 54% to
$52,168 as compared to $113,460 for the corresponding period of 2001. The
decrease in revenue for the nine month and three month periods was due to major
cutbacks in the advertising and market research industries following the
September 11, 2001 terror attacks. These cutbacks resulted in a severe slow down
in demand for market research data processing services. In line with the
decrease in revenue the Registrant managed to reduce its costs. Cost of sales
during the nine months period ended September 30, 2002 decreased by $277,612 or
60% when compared to the similar period of 2001. During the three months period
ended September 2002 the cost of sales decreased by 79% to $29,936 as compared
to $143,002 for the corresponding period in 2001. The large decreases in cost of
sales during the nine months period and the third quarter of the fiscal year
were due to cost reductions that were put into effect due to the decrease in
sales volume.

Selling and Administrative expenses during the nine months period
ended September 30, 2002 decreased by $12,635 or 10%.

Interest income was lower by 81% during the nine months period ended
September 30, 2002 when compared to the similar period of 2001. 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 repaid its note payable to the Registrant and also made
advances of $21,528 to the Registrant. (See NOTE F of "Notes to Form 10-Q"
contained in this report for additional information).

The Registrant had a loss of $(89,987) during the nine month period
ended September 30, 2002 as compared to a loss of $(77,208) in the similar
period of 2001. The Registrant also reported a loss of $(16,633) for the three
months period ending September 30, 2002 as compared to a loss of $(66,245) for
the same period of 2001.






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 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

Working capital decreased by 89,931 in the first nine months of 2002
from a negative balance of ($228,414) at December 31, 2001 to a negative balance
of ($318,345) at September 30, 2002.

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 its 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.
