Press Release Body =
Jersey City, NJ (May 10, 2007) - Comodo, a global Certification Authority and
leading provider of Identity and Trust Assurance Management solutions, has added a
layer of online security with the release of BOClean 4.23. This layered approach
strategy is the culmination of the acquisition of BOClean from Privacy Software
Corporation and further enhances the already-successful malware solution. BOClean
delivers a sophisticated extra level of protection because it detects, shuts down,
and removes any malware that may slipped past other installed security precautions
such as firewalls.

BOClean can be deployed on single computer or over a network and can be customized
for any network or institutional situation. The application is designed to
complement traditional anti-virus solutions by checking executable files just before
they run. BOClean then consults its database of 278,000 malware signatures (which
equates to nearly 2 million malware variants) and instantly kills a process if
malware is detected. In this way, BOClean delivers an extra layer of protection by
catching any virus, Trojan, or malware that has already eluded the other active
guards a user has installed on their system.

\"Adding the BOClean solution to our security suite was key in our strategy of
improving the online security process through a layered approach,\" explains Melih
Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect of Comodo. \"Aside from providing yet
another critical layer of protection, we have achieved our objective to make it so
user-friendly that you can simply install it and not worry about malware anymore.
Feedback from our forum members has confirmed the power and ease of BOClean and they
have even shared their stories with us.\"

BOClean was originally developed by Privacy Software Corporation (PSC) - a
privately-owned company that develops malware, trojans, spyware and rootkit
detection technology. Version 4.23 is offered for free and upgrading to this version
is strongly recommended. Comodo also plans to release re-branded and upgraded
versions of the entire PSC product family in the near future, including IEClean,
NSClean, VacPac and FileVac.
