Press Release Summary: Benefits unavailable anywhere else to resellers



Press Release Body: Claremont, NC-September 14th, 2007-The ASCII Group, a membership
organization of over 2,000 computer resellers based in Bethesda, M.D., today
announced they have renewed their endorsement of Grisoft's AVG Internet Security
software for distribution to its members, through a partnership with Walling Data
Systems, the leading US Authorized Grisoft AVG Distributor, based in North Carolina.

"Renewing our partnership with Walling Data Systems was an obvious decision," says
Jerry Koutavas, VP of business development at ASCII. "Our members earn more, and
receive dedicated support on AVG products with Walling Data Systems."

While AVG can be purchased from other sources, Walling Data Systems is the nation's
top independent provider, and is the only source for AVG in the US that provides
unlimited toll free phone and remote support to resellers.

Walling Data Systems has big plans for their renewed partnership with ASCII.

"ASCII members will receive extra benefits like strong margins on top-rated AVG
products that can\'t be matched elsewhere, as well as dedicated team-members to
service their needs without additional costs or reductions in margin," said Luke
Walling, President of Walling Data Systems.

In addition to the increased margin on electronically delivered AVG software
licenses, resellers can purchase the product in a true retail box, an offer not
available to independent channel buyers elsewhere.

Walling continues, "We are planning to offer our new AVG Internet Security and
Anti-Virus + Anti-Spyware retail boxed products at special pricing to ASCII members
that operate small retail shops, to help them compete with offerings from big-box
retail service companies."

"Out of all the vendors from whom I\'ve ever purchased, Walling Data Systems is
probably the best and easiest to deal with. When I\'ve had support issues, they have
been there to answer questions quickly and concisely-and ordering is simple and
handled quickly and accurately," says Jeffrey Sherman, President and CEO of Warever
Computing, Inc, and ASCII Member. "The AVG product is great, fast, easy to manage
once you get used to their management console, and pretty much bulletproof. Frankly,
if any ASCII members that sell antivirus products have not tried AVG and Walling
Data Systems, they are really missing something."

"Jenaly Technology has been buying from Walling Data Systems for three years now.
The key to their success is that they go out of their way to make sure that you, as
a reseller, are well taken care of," said MJ Shoer, President and Virtual Chief
Technology Officer of Jenaly Technology, and ASCII member. "Much like in my own
business, I can always get in touch with Luke when I need him, just like my
customers can get in touch with me. As a distributor, Walling Data Systems offers
very good margins and they're pleasant to deal with, and I would much rather give my
business to people who are pleasant to work with, versus those who aren't."

Grisoft's AVG security product line sells for a fraction of the cost of similar
solutions from larger vendors like Symantec or Network Associates. Industry and
customer feedback.indicates that AVG also has a substantially smaller footprint on
an IT infrastructure, resulting in higher performing workstations and servers that
are better protected.

Moreover, the VARBusiness Alternatives Study recently indicated that Grisoft\'s AVG
is the number one choice for security software among North American IT
professionals.
