Options Media Goes Live for PhoneGuard Application Suite Including Smartphone Anti-Virus Software Downloads

Options Media Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: OPMG), a growing force in mobile applications and marketing and mobile social media, today announced the on-time delivery of its state-of-the-art PhoneGuard Mobile Applications Suite, featuring PhoneGuard Anti-Virus, powered by NetQin. This anti-virus application has been downloaded over 43 million times, in over 200 countries, in seven languages. Options Media Group recently acquired the exclusive license to market this technology throughout the United States and Canada.

The PhoneGuard Mobile Applications Suite includes anti-virus and anti-malware software, remote backup, anti-texting while driving software and a unique package of anti-theft devices. The anti-theft applications include features that allow the phone's owner to remotely lock the handset, locate the device via GPS, set off an alarm on the phone thus making it useless, and to remotely delete any sensitive personal information from the lost or stolen handset.

Effective today, via a simple download of software from the www.PhoneGuard.com website, Android, Windows, and Symbian operating system-based cell and smart phones users can be protected against sophisticated hackers and cyber criminals intent on stealing or destructing vital data and monitoring the activities of the user. PhoneGuard Mobile Antivirus utilizes a combination of firewall and real-time monitoring to ensure the mobile device is safe and secure while optimized full scan and system management provide instant protection for the mobile device while simultaneously enhancing overall mobile performance.

"Most smart phone users are not aware of the dangers posed by hackers and cyber thieves," commented Scott Frohman, CEO of Options Media Group. "The extents to which these criminals can penetrate a mobile device are nearly endless. These include not only access to stored passwords, stealing address books, intercepting e-mail and text messages, but also the ability to embed tracking bugs to determine the exact GPS coordinates of the user and even the ability to install software that can utilize the camera on the cell phone as a live video feed. The installation of PhoneGuard can easily prevent these situations providing valuable protections for the consumer."

Downloading the PhoneGuard anti-virus to a mobile phone is easy. Consumers simply access via the phone's Web browser www.PhoneGuard.com/antivirus and from the menu select the proper operating system and the download begins automatically. After the download is completed, the user simply enters the activation code that is provided via a text message. For a limited time, consumers will be able to purchase a one-year license for this technology for $39.99, a savings of approximately one third.

"We are excited to offer this important technology to consumers. Most consumers would never think of turning on their home computer without having some type of anti-hacking or antivirus software protection. Today, smart phones are for more powerful devices which now fill many of the traditional roles of personal computers and additionally also store our vital personal information such as our personal phone directories, vital business e-mails, and even photos of our families and friends. The number of smart phone-based attacks is growing on a daily basis and has reached dangerous levels. Our PhoneGuard product, powered by NetQin, effectively addresses this situation simply and economically. We are very proud today to make this important technology available to North American consumers."
