QUARTERDECK AND SPYGLASS ANNOUNCE STRATEGIC TECHNOLOGY ALLIANCE FOR THE
INTERNET

Both companies to share Web technologies

MARINA DEL REY, CALIF., OCTOBER 26, 1995 --- Quarterdeck Corp. (Nasdaq:
QDEK) and Spyglass Inc. (Nasdaq: SPYG) announced today a technology
sharing agreement whereby Quarterdeck will license all of Spyglass's
World-Wide Web client and server technologies for use in its products.
Spyglass will in turn license technology from Quarterdeck for inclusion in
future Spyglass products.

"Quarterdeck and Spyglass have worked with each other successfully in the
past. Both of our development teams will work jointly on the browser and
server products, eliminating redundant or overlapping development efforts.
We also expect to reduce the time needed to bring new products to the
market," said Gaston Bastiaens, President and CEO of Quarterdeck.

The agreement not only means reduced time in development for both company's
respective Web offerings, it also frees up resources in each company to
work on other Internet-related software projects. "Quarterdeck is going to
use these resources to focus on value- added technology for the Internet
and World-Wide Web, such as intelligent search engines and tools for the
Internet," said Bastiaens.

"We think this is a great opportunity for both companies to advance the
technical capabilities of our products in a shorter period of time, which
benefits both companies and our customers," said Douglas Colbeth,
President and CEO of Spyglass.
