award |
Eset Software, Coronado CA - NOD32 is the proud recipient of its, industry leading,
16th Virus Bulletin 100% award. Eset's NOD32 Antivirus Software continues to dominate
the industry with respect to detection a claim supported by its title as the only

NOD32 also continued to set new high standards in Scan Rates with a total time
to complete all tests of just 135 seconds compared to the average of 825 seconds
and the next best time to complete of 251 seconds. To quote Virus Bulletin, when
referring to NOD32's past performance of having never missed a Virus in the Wild
test - "Their record claim remains unbroken" and "speed which it combines with
a recent record of no false positives". NOD32 remains the Best of the New Generation
and will most likely be the last Antivirus product you buy. You have already tried
the rest - it is time to buy the best. |

| NIMDA Worm Sweeps Internet - NOD32 Users safe |
The NIMDA Worm "W32/Nimda.A", which seeks 16 vulnerabilities in Microsoft
Corp.'s IIS software, has infected thousands of Web servers and slowed Internet
traffic for many more. However NOD32 users are safe as AMON detects this virus
upon activation. For new NOD32 users the latest version of NOD32 - version 1.106
automatically cleans the NIMDA worm from previously infected computers. |

| NOD32 leads all other antivirus programs - 15 Virus Bulletin
100% Awards |
The September 2001 Virus Bulletin test results have confirmed NOD32's place at
the top of the 100% Award winners list. Analysts noted not only NOD32's detection
performance but also the program's overwhelming speed of execution. Based on the
results (Virus Bulletin, September 2001) NOD32 had an Executable File Throughput
rate in excess of 5 million B/s, the next best was measured at 2 million B/s and
most of the other 11 competing programs staggered along at less than 800,000 B/s.
As an example, NAI McAfee NetShield tested at approximately 7 times slower while
missing 9 viruses and failing to win a 100% award. Since its first participation
in the prestigious Virus Bulletin tests (May 1998), NOD32 did not miss a single
"In the Wild" virus. This unique and unprecedented result earned NOD32
15 Virus Bulletin 100% Awards, more than any other antivirus product. We always
believed NOD32 to be the best. Now it is official. |

| NOD32 - Best Performance, Highest Speed, Best Value, Best Buy
(Evaluation by independent UK Consumers' Association - November 2000) |
Among the six tested leading antivirus products (Norton AntiVirus, Norman Virus
Control, NOD32, AVP Platinum, Command AntiVirus, McAffee VirusScan), NOD32 received
the top marks for both Performance and Speed, becoming a clear winner of the evaluation
by the UK independent Consumers' Association. The official results were published
in the November issue of the Computing Which ? magazine. For many, this was not
a surprising outcome since the NOD32 Antivirus System was the only one to detect
100% of the virus samples across all the test sets in the latest round of the
Virus Bulletin tests and the only one to detect all of the "In the Wild" viruses
since May 1998. |
