| The word about Immunet's free anti-virus 
| solution is spreading fast. The agent 
| installed on my computer tells me that there 
| are currently 162,597 people in the Immunet 
| Cloud, and that I'm protected from 12,637,576 
| threats. When I first installed it almost a 
| month ago, the number of users was around 
| 122,000.
