SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

                                                                    EXHIBIT 10.4
                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

         THIS SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into as of the
2nd day of September, 1999 by Taurus TeleSYS Inc., a Virginia corporation
("Licensor"), Global Travel Network LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
("Licensee") and Etravnet.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent").

                                    RECITALS

         A. Licensor has developed and is the sole owner of a proprietary
computer software product called "T-Gate," a description of which is set forth
on Exhibit A ("Software") that links computers through the Internet, telephones
and facsimile machines.

         B. Licensee is in the travel industry and is desirous of using the
Software in its business.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. License of Software.  Subject to the terms and  conditions set forth
in this  Agreement,  Licensor  grants  to  Licensee,  and  Licensee  accepts,  a
worldwide,  nontransferable,  exclusive  license  (the  "License")  to  use  the
Software and any derivations thereof,  including any enhancements,  upgrades and
new versions, solely within the Field of Use. Licensee is not granted any rights
with respect to the Software (or any derivations  thereof)  outside of the Field
of Use. "Field of Use" is defined solely as those services normally performed by
travel  agencies  as  of  the  date  of  this  Agreement,   including  obtaining
reservations   for  the  following:   (a)  hotel,   motel  and  other  temporary
accommodation facilities for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days; (b) rental
of  automobiles  for a period  not to exceed  thirty  (30)  days;  (c) travel on
aircraft,  trains and boats;  and (d) vacation  packages,  sightseeing and other
travel destinations.  Licensor reserves all rights not expressly granted in this
Section 1.

         2. Term and Termination.

            (a) Initial  Term and Renewal  Term.  Initial and renewal  terms are
subject  to early  termination  of this  Agreement  pursuant  to  Section 2. The
initial  term of this  Agreement  shall be for a period of four years  after the
date  of  notification  by  Licensor  to  Licensee  that  software  is in a form
available  for use by Licensee.  It is agreed and  understood  that although the
initial term will begin when software is available  for use,  Licensee will make
an initial  deposit of Twenty Five Thousand  Dollars  ($25,000)  with signing of
Agreement.  Additional  payments  due as part of minimum  royalty  would be paid
based on the beginning  date of the initial term as based on the software  being
available for use by Licensee.  During the four-year initial term, Licensee will
be required to make  minimum  royalty  payments and in the event  percentage  of
royalty on sales exceeds the minimum payment, then Licensee would be required to
make these payments as well.  The quota on royalty will not be considered  until
the  parties  enter  the  renewal  term  which  are  years  five and six of this
Agreement.  During the renewal term, it is understood that annual royalty income
paid to Licensor from transactions processed through T-Gate Software must exceed
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) minimum royalty payment for at least one or the
two year  renewals.  The renewal term,  which  consists of  continuous  two-year
automatic  renewals  requires one of the two years that the Licensee exceeds the
annual minimum  royalty due. For example,  if in year five royalty is Fifty Five
Thousand Dollars ($55,000)  earned,  and in year six Forty Five Thousand Dollars
($45,000) is earned, Licensee will have met his minimum quota and would have the
right to renew for an additional  two-year term.  Licensee is required to notify
Licensor sixty (60) days prior to the end of each term if he plans to renew.  In
the event

Licensee does not maintain minimum royalty as described herein, additional
renewals will be at Licensor's discretion.

            (b) Early Termination.  Licensor or Licensee shall have the right to
terminate  this  Agreement  for a material  breach of this  Agreement  after (i)
providing  the  breaching  party with  thirty (30) days'  prior  written  notice
describing the nature of the material  breach and (ii) the breaching party fails
to cure the  described  breach  before the  expiration  of the  thirty  (30) day
period.

            (c)  Failure  to  Pay  License   Fees,   Royalty  or  Support  Fees.
Notwithstanding  any provision in this  Agreement to the  contrary,  if Licensee
fails to pay timely any Initial Term License Fee (defined  below),  Renewal Term
License Fee (defined  below),  Royalty  (defined  below) or Support Fee (defined
below)  due  pursuant  to this  Agreement,  Licensor  shall  have  the  right to
terminate this Agreement on five (5) days prior written notice to Licensee, with
respect to the payment of any Initial  Term  License  Fee,  Renewal Term License
Fee, Royalty or Support Fee, provided Licensee fails to cure the breach within a
fifteen (15) day period.
