Cupertino, CA – June 20, 2005 – Trend Micro, Inc. (TSE: 4704, NASDAQ: TMIC), a leader in network antivirus and Internet content security software and services, today announced three new solutions that detect and remove evasive spyware and grayware for the home, small-to-medium business, and the enterprise.

Trend Micro Anti-Spyware solutions are engineered to provide accurate, real-time detection and removal of spyware and grayware while incorporating enhanced features that provide optimal scalability and ease-of-use. Designed to operate alongside various antivirus and security software, these solutions can be used alone or as part of a layered defense strategy at multiple points in the network.

“As promised, Trend Micro has executed quickly following our recent acquisition of InterMute, continuing our momentum around providing customers with top-quality solutions against spyware,” said Eva Chen, CEO of Trend Micro. “These three solutions provide the superior technology, global expertise and timely support that customers have come to expect from a pioneer in the security field. With Trend Micro, customers can get anti-spyware protection that easily complements their antivirus solutions, providing opportunities to adopt integrated security solutions now and in the future.”

Trend Micro Anti-Spyware products feature CWShredder™, regarded as one of the most effective solutions for eliminating the CoolWebSearch Web browsing hijacker and its many variants - some of which avoid detection and removal through ever-changing methods. Trend Micro’s global research and support centers provide timely updates to these products to ensure that customers are protected against the latest spyware threats....................
