Delrina To Include Powerful Windows 95 Data Communications Software with
Cyberjack Internet Product

WinComm PRO 7.0 Includes All The Features Users Need to Access BBSs,
On-Line Services and Host Computers

TORONTO, ONT -- September 19, 1995 -- Delrina Corporation (NASDAQ:DENAF,
TSE:DC), the leading supplier of PC communications software for Windows,
today announced that it will include WinComm PRO 7.0 for Microsoft Windows
95 in the box with its Internet product Cyberjack 7.0.

WinComm PRO is a general purpose communications package for connecting to
BBSs (bulletin board services), on-line services like CompuServe, MCI
Mail, and Genie, and host computers through terminal emulation. Unlike
on-line packages that have evolved from text-based origins, WinComm PRO is
graphically oriented, making on-line connections simpler and easier. It
also includes all the essential utilities associated with general purpose
communications, like anti-virus technology and a ZIP manager for managing
compressed files, in a single integrated package so users do not have to
piece together such components from other sources. The new version 7.0
builds upon its tradition as one of the leading data communications
products and:

* Improves performance and usability with 32-bit, multitasking,
multithreaded code, enabling complete background communications, plus
other enhancements under Windows 95.

* Includes Image Manager, a built-in image file viewer that lets users view
image files as they are downloaded, and also lets the user edit and
manipulate them.

* Includes an integrated ZIP manager that lets users visually manage files
that are in a compressed ZIP format.

* Includes built-in virus detection through Norton AntiVirus for compressed
or uncompressed files, to protect users from inadvertent computer virus
infection acquired from a file that was downloaded.

* Includes Delrina Basic, a new Visual Basic-like scripting language making
WinComm PRO more easily customizable and programmable.

* Supports RIPscrip graphics terminal emulation (Remote Image Processing),
so users can navigate RIP capable BBSs with their mouse and experience the
new graphically-enhanced bulletin boards.

According to Delrina president Mark Skapinker, "Despite the mass appeal of
the Internet, there is still a huge population of users that subscribe to
bulletin boards, that work remotely and need terminal connections to their
company's host systems, or who need a solid general purpose data
communications package that can connect them to an on-line service.
WinComm PRO is designed to provide Windows 95 users with an integrated and
comprehensive general purpose package that includes all of the little
utilities that surround on-line activities. Rather than trying to
piece-meal all these utilities and shoe-horn them on top of the basic
communications you get in the operating system, we're including WinComm
PRO in the box with Cyberjack. The combination of Cyberjack for the
Internet and WinComm PRO for general data communications, gives users a
full-featured package to handle all of their on-line needs."

On-Line 95

WinComm PRO 7.0 is written to take advantage of all the new communications
enhancements under Windows 95. The software is full 32-bit, multitasking,
multithreaded code, which delivers faster, more reliable data
communications, even while running other computer-intensive applications.

WinComm PRO 7.0 also takes advantage of Plug 'n Play for easier
installation and configuration of fax modems. The software has also been
written for full OLE 2.0 (Object Linking & Embedding) compliance, which
allows users to do things like drag an on-line session icon from the
WinComm phonebook directly to one's desktop. For example, to connect to a
particular session, a user would normally have to open the WinComm PRO
program folder, launch the program, search for the session icon in the
phonebook, and then click on the icon to launch the session. If a user
frequently connects to a particular on-line service, such as a stock price
quoting service, they can drag the session icon directly on their desktop.
By clicking on the icon, WinComm PRO is automatically launched with the
complete session settings, taking the user directly to the service.

The user interface of WinComm PRO 7.0 has been further refined based on
Microsoft Office conventions (product is MS Office logo'd), which provides
consistency, ease-of-use, and reduces the learning curve between it and
other Office compatible applications. WinComm PRO still maintains its
advanced usability features like split-screen session windows, 5000 line
backscroll buffer and context sensitive menus accessible from a right
mouse click.

Integrated On-Line Utilities

In the past, users have had to source on-line utilities, such as an image
viewer or compression software, from third parties, either as freeware,
shareware or from more expensive commercial packages. Furthermore, none of
the utilities could work together. WinComm PRO 7.0 includes a
comprehensive set of integrated on-line utilities, including an image
manager, a ZIP file manager and Norton AntiVirus.

The image manager (Image Manager) displays most common image files (17
types) so users can immediately view images that they have downloaded. It
also has the ability to display the image as it downloads, so a user can
cancel their download if the file is not what they expect, saving them
on-line connection charges. In addition, Image Manager also provides some
basic image manipulation features normally found in more sophisticated
packages like Adobe PhotoShop, such as rotating the image, changing the
color palette or adding additional contrast.

The built-in ZIP Manager and Norton AntiVirus technology in WinComm PRO 7.0
work in conjunction. For example, compressed files cannot be checked for
computer viruses, unless they are first uncompressed. WinComm PRO,
however, is able to automatically uncompress a downloaded file to check
for viruses. The integration of the ZIP manager and AntiVirus technology
provides an important safeguard against inadvertent infections due to lack
of care or the accidental launching of an infected file or program that
has been downloaded.

Scripting

WinComm PRO 7.0 now has a new scripting language, Delrina Basic, which is
completely compatible with Microsoft Visual Basic. Scripts, which can
either be written or recorded, provide users with the ability to automate
tasks for on-line sessions. In past versions of WinComm PRO, the scripting
capability was 'C' language based, which is robust, but more difficult to
learn and use than Basic. The new scripting language uses the same
conventions as MS Visual Basic, which is also the basis of the macro
language used in all the Microsoft Office applications, such as Word and
Excel. The implementation of a Visual Basic compatible scripting
capability enables a whole new set of users to automate their
communications sessions.

Accessing Graphical BBSs

BBSs originated in a text-based communications world, but today BBSs are
becoming graphical following an industry standard protocol -- RIPscrip.
RIP is the BBSs equivalent of the rich graphical interface that has
popularized the World Wide Web for Internet users. For example, users can
now navigate RIP-based BBSs with their mouse, something not possible in
the text-based world. WinComm PRO 7.0 supports RIP, enabling users to
access and experience the new graphically-based BBSs.

WinComm PRO 7.0 will be included in the box with Cyberjack 7.0 (a suite of
Internet applications) when the two ship in Q4, 1995. The list price of
the combination is $129 ($159 Cdn). Both WinComm and Cyberjack are also
included as part of Delrina CommSuite 95, which includes WinFax PRO 7.0
for fax and messaging, also available in Q4, 1995.
