MAXIMUS USB DRIVE + DOCTOR WEB ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM:
two advanced technologies are better then one!

Songor Telecom company (www.usbdrive.ru), supplier of MAXIMUS™ USB DRIVE™ devices in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States and DialogueScience (www.antivir.ru), leading developer of antivirus software, announce a joint action, according to the terms of which MAXIMUS™ USB DRIVE™ devices that get sold within the territory of Russia will be completed by the tree month license for Doctor Web Antivirus Program.

When the period of validity of the license (3 months) is over, users can prolong the subscription and purchase the discounted by 30% annual subscription to Doctor Web Antivirus Program.

"The necessary condition for computer viruses to spread is availability of "conveyance means". Recently these were mostly floppy disks, but now the significant number of viruses is e-mail-oriented. Besides, wide spreading of portable information carriers of sufficient capacity at reasonable prices, such as, in particular, USB DRIVE, will no doubt make us remember about the viruses that get spread not electronically, but in our pockets and bags", Sergei Antimonov, director general of DialogueScience, said.

Husein Az-zari, president of Songor Telecom, developed the subject: "There is such a joke: a gift must be bulky and expensive enough to make the person who'd like to throw it away feel uncomfortable and sorry about it. But from my point of view it is a "wrong" joke. We won't discuss the price it is the matter of a present to the purchasers of our devices, but we will specially speak about the advantages. We believe that, since information spreading and therefore producing the correspondent carriers, is directly linked to the matters of safety, in particular, antivirus safety, we must help our clients to solve these kind of problems. Reaching such a principal decision as engaging into MAXIMUS™ USB DRIVE™ an antivirus program, we conducted our own analysis of the antivirus software market. There were two essential criteria: the quality of the product and costs of utilization - obtaining new versions. The latter is also extremely important, because when the tree month license we present to our customers will expire he should have the possibility to use the antivirus program. We have decided that, judging by the two criteria, Doctor Web has no equal. Besides, the given project gives brand new view of the "tool kit" of IT managers in companies of different levels from the point of view of corporate information safety.

I'm pleased to note that that very day we signed the contract we got an additional confirmation of our choice. The brilliant victory Doctor Web gained in February comparative testing of antivirus programs held by "Virus Bulletin" magazine editors proved once again that our clients receive an outstanding program as a present."
