      K. Raza, certify that:





1. I

      reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended June 30,
      2006 of TouchStone Software Corporation;





2. Based
      on my
      knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue statement of
      material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
      made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made,
      not
      misleading with respect to the period covered by this quarterly
      report;





3. Based
      on my
      knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included
      in
      this quarterly report, fairly present in all material respects the financial
      condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and
      for, the periods presented in this quarterly report;





4. The
      registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and
      maintaining the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange
      Act
      Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and we have:





a. designed
      such
      disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating
      to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiary, is made known to
      us by
      others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this
      quarterly report is being prepared;





b. evaluated
      the
      effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures as of a
      date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report (the
“Evaluation
      Date”);
      and





c. presented
      in
      this quarterly report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure
      controls and procedures based on our evaluation as of the Evaluation
      Date;





5. The
      Registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most
      recent evaluation, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the
      Registrant’s board of directors (or person performing the equivalent
      function):





a. all
      significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal control which
      could adversely affect the Registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize
      and report financial data and have identified for the registrant’s auditors any
      material weaknesses in internal controls; and





b. any
      fraud,
      whether material or not material, involves management or other employees who
      have a significant role in the Registrant’s internal controls.





6. The
      registrants’s other certifying officer and I have indicated in the quarterly
      report whether or not there were significant changes in internal controls or
      in
      other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent
      to
      the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with
      regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
