Press Release Summary: With its renowned advanced heuristics threat detection
technology and express scanning speed, ESET NOD32 won the confidence of the leading
Yemeni company

Press Release Body: Dubai, United Arab Emirates, January 6th, 2008: ADAOX Middle
East, the regional business development centre of ESET NOD32 Antivirus, today
announced that Yemen LNG Company has joined the increasing number of companies in
the Middle East that are now relying on ESET NOD32 to protect their computers and
network from threats such as viruses, spyware, malware and other emerging online
threats. ESET NOD32 antivirus software is renowned for its advanced heuristics
technology in threat detection and is today the fastest and the lightest antivirus
product available in the market.

Speaking on the deployment, Mr. Ron Breakwell, Information Systems and Telecoms
Manager of Yemen LNG Company, said, "We had read a lot of positive reviews about
ESET NOD32 in magazines and IT websites before deciding to implement it. ESET NOD32
is a very efficient antivirus and we believe it will be an effective tool to
safeguard our IT network with its innovative threat detection technology. ESET NOD32
is very light as compared to other antivirus products, less CPU intensive when
executing a background scan and is also more efficient in detecting threats."

The deployment of ESET NOD32 at Yemen LNG Company was a seamless process with no
network slowdown or downtime. Yemen LNG now centrally manages the ESET NOD32
software, which automatically updates end-user devices without impacting performance
and offers the highest level of proactive protection that stops new forms of malware
before impacting the network. Since the award-winning software was implemented, the
company has been able to avert more web based threats than they were able to
previously with their old antivirus system from another vendor.

"ESET NOD32 has facilitated reliable network performance and hasn't had any adverse
impact on our business processes. Since we replaced our previous antivirus solution
with ESET NOD32, we have been able to detect and quarantine many viruses that the
previous antivirus did not even detect. We would recommend ESET NOD32 highly to
companies that are looking for an efficient and highly effective antivirus
solution," Mr. Ron Breakwell added.

The supply of ESET NOD32 at Yemen LNG was carried out by Smartnet, a leading name in
IT services in Yemen and a reseller for ESET's security products. "Yemen LNG
evaluated a number of security solutions and found ESET NOD32 to be a perfect fit
for their requirements. We are thrilled that ESET NOD32 is in great demand with our
customers in this region. More companies are now recognizing the fact that
installing just any antivirus product is not enough but they need products such as
ESET NOD32 which provides them proactive threat detection technology and does not
consume significant computing resources," said Mr. Khaled Shamsan of Smartnet.

ESET says that its research indicates that consumers and businesses are looking for
maximum protection, low system requirements, accurate results and fast scanning
speeds. They don't want solutions that slow down their computers and affect routine
business applications.

Mr. Neo Neophytou, Managing Director of ADAOX Middle East said, "We are proud and
happy that Yemen LNG, a leading name in Yemen, has chosen ESET NOD32 over other
security products. ESET NOD32 is favored by many leading companies in the region as
the antivirus product of choice because other competing products are more demanding
in terms of CPU resources and are also relatively slower in scanning. We are quite
confident that Yemen LNG will reap the many rewards of deploying ESET NOD32,
including time and cost benefits."

ESET also recently unveiled ESET NOD32 3.0, the new version of its anti-virus
product. ESET's ThreatSense technology, an "early warning system" provides the
industry's highest level of accuracy and has not missed an in-the-wild-virus in
Virus Bulletin VB 100 testing over the past nine years, while producing only one
false-positive during that time. It has also received more Advanced+ awards from
AV-Comparatives.org for proactive protection than any other product.

While ESET NOD 32 has gained traction as the leading anti-virus product in the
regional market, ESET has also recently announced the introduction of ESET Smart
Security, a new integrated security solution, ideal for consumers and
small-to-medium-sized businesses. It includes antivirus, antispyware, antispam and
firewall features built on the advanced heuristic ThreatSense detection system and
the ESET NOD32 scanning engine. With significantly lower performance overhead as
compared to competiting products, ESET Smart Security uses only 40MB of disk space
and scans systems up to 30-times faster than other products.

ESET's new solutions are ideal for the small-to-medium size business environment. By
incorporating ESET's Remote Administrator, both ESET Smart Security and the new
version of ESET NOD32 Antivirus can be deployed and managed remotely from a central
location.
