New Jersey, NJ (May 14, 2008) – As recently reported by Microsoft, there has been a 300% increase in the number of Trojan attacks launched in past 12 months. To help end users that may have already been infected in the current wave of attacks, Comodo, a leading security company, today announced the first-of-its-kind free PC cleaning provided by a trained expert.

This free service is available for a limited time and is offered without obligation – “no catches – no kidding.”
