(ALISO VIEJO, CA) May 16, 2007 — In the first 45 days after eEye Digital Security® announced its free edition of Blink Personal Internet Security, more than 13,000 consumers have given the software a trial run, making it the most popular product download in company history. Blink® Personal Internet Security includes anti-virus, anti-spyware, personal firewall, and host vulnerability assessment at no cost to consumers and home office users.

A leading developer of system security software, eEye Digital Security provides unified client security and vulnerability management tools designed from the ground up for superior protection and performance, safeguarding individuals' and companies' critical systems and confidential information.

Blink Personal is the first Internet security solution to build multiple protection layers into a small, single agent that transcends the typical 'bloatware' of today's client security. It protects users' systems and personal information with:

- Intrusion prevention and system protection from remote attacks
- Detection of missing patches for applications and the operating system
- Detection of configuration issues that lower system security
- Multiple Anti-virus engines, including protection from unknown zero-day attacks
- Spyware and adware detection and removal
- Anti-Phishing and Identity-theft attempt prevention
- System and Application firewalls to control remote access to your system

"Blink Personal is the first Internet security solution to expose system and application flaws that usually go under the radar," said Sean Martin, CISSP®, Director of Marketing. "With its small footprint, Blink Personal includes all the protection a consumer will ever need while allowing for new features to be added incrementally without additional cost."

Available as a 1-year subscription for personal or home office use in North America, Blink Personal can be downloaded by visiting http://free-antivirus.eeye.com.
