Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a)           Effective on October 14, 2008, PMB Helin Donovan (“PMB”) was dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm engaged to audit the financial statements of GlobalSCAPE, Inc (the “Company”).  PMB performed the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.  During these periods and the subsequent interim period prior to their dismissal, there were no disagreements with PMB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to PMB’s satisfaction, would have caused PMB to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with PMB’s reports, nor were there any “reportable events,” as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Regulation S-K”).

The audit reports of PMB for the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion, or a disclaimer of opinion, or qualification or modification as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

The Company has provided PMB with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested PMB to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made above by the Company.  A copy of such letter, dated October 15, 2008, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the change in accountants described herein.

(b)           Effective on October 14, 2008, the Company engaged Grant Thornton LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements.  During the two most recent fiscal years and through October 14, 2008 the Company had not consulted with Grant Thornton LLP with respect to: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

We have read the statements included under Item 4.01 in the Form 8-K dated October 15, 2008 of GlobalSCAPE, Inc.

We cannot confirm or deny that the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP was approved by the Board of Directors, or that they were not consulted prior to their appointment as auditors.

Very truly yours,
