Press Release Summary: To help PC users combat serious increases in virus threats,
Comodo provides experts to clean any PC for free - \"no catches - no kidding\"

Press Release Body: New Jersey, NJ (May 14, 2008) - As recently reported by
Microsoft, there has been a 300% increase in the number of Trojan attacks launched
in past 12 months. To help end users with systems that have been infected in the
current wave of attacks, Comodo, a leading security company, today announced the
first-of-its-kind free PC cleaning provided by a trained expert. Unlike other
security companies that offer free automated cleaning tools that users must manage,
Comodo\'s free malware cleaning service has real people remotely cleaning machines in
order to ensure that machines receive a thorough and proper cleaning. This free
service is available for a limited time and is offered without obligation - \"no
catches - no kidding.\"

Comodo Responds to Trojan Threats
Comodo recognizes that the increasing number of Trojan threats worldwide undermines
people\'s confidence in the Internet as a trusted medium for communications and
commerce. In order to help consumers increase their confidence in their online
transactions, Comodo is offering its expert malware removal services for free so
that everyone can be protected. After receiving remedial virus cleaning services
from Comodo, end users should use preventative security, such as the free Comodo
Firewall Pro, to prevent future virus infiltration.

This limited time offer provides a Free PC Cleaning service delivered by security
experts who remotely access a user\'s computer and perform the cleaning, removing
Trojans, spyware, viruses, rootkits and other malicious code.

Promoting Safe Computing Practices
Comodo is offering this service to introduce consumers to safe computing practices.
While almost all users recognize that they need to keep their machine secure, they
often do not how to select the best security providers. This initiative is meant to
introduce users to Comodo as a holistic provider of preventative and remedial
services so that consumers will feel comfortable on the Internet, whether they are
surfing, purchasing or performing other transactions.

\"By offering a free malware cleaning service, we aim to create a community of
confident consumers with clean PCs\" said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security
Architect of Comodo. \"This is how we continue to build on our vision of a trusted
Internet so that more and more users will feel safe while surfing - and purchasing -
