STAMFORD, Conn., April 25, 2007 — Today Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ:SYMC) started to list Enigma Software Group’s (OTCBB:ENGM) SpyHunter software product in their “Norton 360″, and “Norton SystemWorks” Security products as a security threat. Symantec falsely listed the product as a Security Risk, with a severe threat rating of 3. This precipitous and ill-considered action by Symantec is causing Enigma Software Group significant damages.
In response to Symantec’s erroneous action, Enigma sent Symantec a Cease and Desist letter. A copy of the letter can be found at the following link SYMANTEC CEASE AND DESIST. Enigma intends to follow through with swift legal action. SpyHunter is not a security threat, and Enigma intends to defend it’s position vigorously against any business that seeks to use this erroneous designation as part of a strategy to undermine competition. Contrary to Symantec’s listing, SpyHunter helps consumers protect their computers against unwanted spyware and malware.
