Press Release Summary: The Gulf's leading real estate agency protects its network
from threats such as viruses, malware, spyware and other emerging online threats.


Press Release Body: Dubai, United Arab Emirates, August 4, 2008: ADAOX Middle East,
the regional business development centre for ESET NOD32 Antivirus, announced that
Better Homes, the Middle East's largest real estate agency, has deployed ESET NOD32
Antivirus to protect and secure its computers and IT network from spyware, malware,
viruses and other known and unknown security threats. Better Homes chose ESET NOD32
after evaluating a number of antivirus products available in the market. NTS,
ADAOX's channel partner in the UAE, implemented the solution seamlessly for the
realtor after studying and understanding its security requirements.

Commenting on the implementation, Mr. Ryan Mahoney, Managing Director of Better
Homes said, "We were looking for an antivirus solution that was easy to deploy and
would protect our IT infrastructure against any new forms of online threats. Having
tested a number of products, we selected ESET NOD32 based on its detection rate,
overall performance, manageability as well as the company\'s technology leadership
and established track record."

Built on the award-winning ThreatSense engine, ESET NOD32 antivirus software
proactively detects and eliminates more viruses, trojans, worms, adware, spyware,
phishing, rootkits and other internet threats than any other antivirus solution
available on the market today. 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. It is an ideal antivirus for any system
including operating systems such as Windows Vista and Windows XP and also runs
smoothly on Windows legacy systems, MS-DOS, file servers, mail servers, and more.

"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 will slow down their computers and affect routine business
applications," said Mr. Neo Neophytou, Managing Director of ADAOX Middle East.
"Better Homes subjected ESET NOD32 and other antivirus solutions to rigorous testing
and we are very proud, but not surprised that our solution came out as the winner.
ESET NOD32 has the manageability and antivirus capabilities that Better Homes needs
to easily exchange information, without having to worry about any damaging content.
ESET NOD32 also provides complete e-mail filtering solutions, and we are proud that
our solution can reduce the risks of malicious code and unsuitable e-mail content in
the process."

NTS helped Better Homes implement the ESET NOD32 solution seamlessly with no network
slowdown or downtime. ESET NOD32 can be centrally managed, 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.

Mahoney went on to say, "In order to maintain our service standards, we recognize
the importance of having a failsafe and efficient security solution in place to keep
the performance of our network at an optimum level"

Mr. Shivkumar, Managing Director, NTS added, "ESET NOD32 has provided Better Homes
with the ability of timely and centralised management of the updates and console,
thus allowing them to reduce the maintenance tasks and since deploying ESET NOD32,
Better Homes has not had to deal with a single infection in their network."
