PivX Protects Against IFRAME Vulnerability; Bofra and Mydoom Worms Blocked by Qwik-Fix Pro.

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- PivX Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:PIVX), the leader in next generation host-based intrusion prevention software for the Windows security market, announces that Qwik-Fix Pro already protects Windows users against the new fast spreading Bofra and Mydoom worms, with no Microsoft patch available for the IFRAME vulnerability.

The first public mention of the IFRAME vulnerability was on October 25, 2004. Proof of Concept (PoC) exploit code appeared on November 2, 2004. The first worms to exploit the vulnerability, Bofra and the new Mydoom variants appeared a few days later. All versions of Windows are affected except for Windows XP SP2 and Microsoft does not have a patch available at this point. Qwik-Fix Pro users have been protected against the vulnerability exploited by these new variants since September 1, 2004.

"IT managers need to have a proactive security tool in place to protect against these types of vulnerabilities. We are starting to see a trend of ZeroDay exploits where no patches are available. This should be a wake-up call to enterprises that reactive solutions, such as anti-virus and patch management, are no longer enough," said Thor Larholm, senior security researcher at PivX. "Users who have deployed Qwik-Fix Pro were protected against Bofra and Mydoom and all variants of these worms for more than two months before the specific threats were released."

Qwik-Fix Pro, PivX's flagship product, is the most advanced tool for protecting Microsoft(R) Windows-based desktops and servers from worms, viruses and other malware. Qwik-Fix Pro safeguards PCs from falling victim to the next worm or virus often before vendor security patches become available, avoiding the typical scramble to test and deploy patches. Recently, the appearance of a ZeroDay vulnerability scared many in the industry, but Qwik-Fix Pro protected its users against this exploit in advance.

"This demonstrates, yet again, the benefits of the proactive security strategy of Qwik-Fix Pro," said Kevin Nelson, VP of marketing at PivX. "The specific vulnerability exploited by the new Bofra and Mydoom variants wasn't discovered until October 25, 2004, but by blocking the root cause of class of vulnerabilities that other worms have used to infect Windows systems, Qwik-Fix Pro protected against this new vulnerability without prior knowledge and it will of course protect against future exploits that target this same vulnerability."

Windows users can determine if they're already infected by testing for the presence of a backdoor that listens on port 28876.
