QUARTERDECK SHIPS NEXT-GENERATION WEB SERVER, WEBSTAR FOR WINDOWS 95/NT

Low-Cost 32-bit Server Offers Security, Multiple Virtual Servers for both
Intranet and Internet Locations

MARINA DEL REY, CALIF., JANUARY 9, 1996 --- QUARTERDECK CORP. (NASDAQ:
QDEK) ANNOUNCED IT HAS BEGUN SHIPPING WEBSTAR FOR WINDOWS 95/NT. WEBSTAR,
FORMERLY CALLED WEBSERVER 32, IS PRICED AT $399. IT OFFERS DIRECTORY-LEVEL
SECURITY AND SUPPORTS THE ESTABLISHMENT OF MULTIPLE VIRTUAL SERVERS ON A
SINGLE, NON-DEDICATED PC.

WebSTAR's installation program determines which operating system is being
used and optimizes its performance accordingly. The program comes with a
highly intuitive, graphical interface that makes setup, configuration, and
administration of WebSTAR easy for the user. WebSTAR for Windows 95/NT
requires a 486-66 with 8M bytes of memory to run under Windows 95, and a
Pentium-based PC with 16M bytes of memory to run under Windows NT.

"Administrators and users will both find WebSTAR an easy way to set up a
small, internal Intranet server for corporate use yet also powerful enough
to scale up to run a high volume public Web site, handling many thousands
of requests per hour. We think WebSTAR offers the best performance for its
price in the Web server market," said Emerick Woods, vice president and
general manager of the Internet Applications business unit at
Quarterdeck.

WebSTAR for Windows 95/NT is designed to operate right out of the box with
no Unix experience required. The Control Center handles all
administration, logging, document management, and user management. It
works with all popular Web browsers and authoring tools and is compatible
with HTTP v1.0/HTTP v0.9.

WebSTAR for Windows 95/NT is shipping now to all of Quarterdeck's retail
channels and is also available through Quarterdeck Select Corporation, the
company's direct mail telemarketing network.
