Press Release Summary = Comodo\'s firewall passes every leaktest, edging out
Symantec\'s Norton Firewall more than 3:1

Press Release Body = Jersey City, NJ (May 31, 2007) - Comodo, a global leader in
Identity and Trust Assurance Management solutions, today announced that its Firewall
Pro topped the list in Matousec\'s (www.matousec.com) May 24, 2007 leaktest of 11
leading firewalls, and was one of only two to receive an \"excellent\" rating. Of a
possible total score of 9,625 based on 77 various leak scenarios, Comodo scored
9,475, making it the highest scoring firewall available on the market today. Comodo
offers Firewall Pro for free in its commitment to ensure that every computer has the
best protection possible.

Symantec, widely known for its Norton suite of products, did not perform as well.
Norton Internet Security 2007 scored only 3,100 of the 9,475 possible points,
earning it a rating of \"very poor\". Previously, Norton\'s standalone Personal
Firewall 2006, when independently tested, scored 4,600, thus making its latest
version an even weaker solution than previous versions according to the Matousec
leaktest. McAfee\'s Internet Security Suite 2006 placed even lower in the leaktest
than Norton, scoring only 2,325, also earning a spot in the \"very poor\" category.

\"It\'s a wonderful two-part story,\" says Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security
Architect of Comodo. \"The first is the fact that we offer a firewall for free, when
many competitors charge for theirs, and often too much. The second part is the fact
that Comodo\'s Firewall Pro is the best available, and you don\'t have to take our
word for it. The results speak for themselves.\"

* Secures against internal and external attacks
* Blocks internet access to malicious Trojan programs
* Safeguards your Personal data against theft
