INSTALLSHIELD CORPORATION OFFERS FREELY DISTRIBUTABLE VERSIONS OF
DEMOSHIELD AND INSTALLSHIELD TECHNOLOGY

SCHAUMBURG, IL (February, 1996) InstallShield Corporation announced today
the release of two products for free distribution on select CD-ROMs and
web sites. The DemoShield4 Working Model allows companies that market
Windows applications to create interactive demos and tutorials quickly.
InstallShield Express Lite for Visual Basic 4 creates installations for
Windows applications using InstallShield3 technology in a visual point and
click environment. According to Viresh Bhatia, InstallShield Corporation's
president, "We're doing this to make the buying decision, installation and
use of all Windows applications easier. The great thing about DemoShield
and InstallShield technology is they both lead to easier-to-use Windows
applications. Now trade magazines, book publishers and our strategic
partners can provide significant value to their readers or customers when
they make our technology available, and the best part is that Windows
developers and their customers win." InstallShield Express Lite is a $99
value. The DemoShield4 Working Model is a $495 value.

DemoShield4 Working Model

The DemoShield4 Working Model is designed to allow a Windows Software
marketer to create a complete unlimited demo of their application and get
the true feel of DemoShield. Although there are no feature limitations,
the DemoShield4 Working Model is time-bombed, and demos created with
DemoShield will play only until July 1, 1996. "A demo designer can try
every single feature of DemoShield and even send demos to their customers.
We're confident that they will love the DemoShield4 Working Model, and
order their own copy of DemoShield4. In the meantime, they get 30 days of
free support and a copy of the DemoShield4 "Getting Started" guide free
just for registering as a DemoShield4 Working Model User," adds Russ
McNeilly, InstallShield Corporation's Strategic Marketing Manager.
DemoShield4 is available on CD-ROM in two versions for native Windows 3.1
and Windows 95 application demos. When the DemoShield4 Working Model user
