FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PANDA SOFTWARE™ LAUNCHES EMPLOYEE ANTIVIRUS BENEFIT PROGRAM Now Employees Get Free Virus Protection at Home, Too GLENDALE, CA – AUGUST 06, 2003 – Antivirus innovator Panda Software will now match every one of its corporate and institutional licenses with another free license at home. Requiring only a new 50-seat commitment, Panda will grant a full one-year license of the popular Titanium desktop antivirus product to its clients' employees on a one-for-one basis for their home use. "The big customers get all the perks in the software business," said Panda General Manager Riggs Eckelberry. "We think the rest of us deserve a break. This is one of half a dozen benefit programs that our small and midsize customers qualify for every day." The company says this pilot program, in a limited test, applies to corporate, educational and governmental sites purchasing more than 50 seats of Panda's award-winning software. For every seat the institution purchases, Panda will give away a matching Titanium license. The service is strictly for employee personal use for a single year only. Full plan details are available at http://www.pandasecurity.com/matchingseats, [email protected], or by calling 1-888-472-0880. Now making a big splash in the US market with market-friendly policies like this one, European multinational Panda Software says it's all about the viruses. That's why it updates all its client sites at least once every day, when other major publishers allow two and even three days between updates.

The free Titanium service features the same daily virus update that employees get at work.
