enter network password dia. box

[Rod]

I have a computer running w/xp prof and I wanted to add
my old computer running w/98se to my wireless network. I
have a Linksys BEFW11S4 802.11b Router and bought a
WUSB11 802.11b usb network adapter for my w/98se
computer. I have a good signal and can connect to the
internet if I open AOL, and can use internet explorer if
AOL is open. However if I try to open Internet explorer
alone I get a dialogue box that says Enter Network
Password It gives my home page address under SITE: and
lists Linksys BEFW11S4V4 for Realm: then it has a space
for user name and password. I didn't set up a user or
password for the old computer. I called verizon support,
Linksys support, and compaq support and not any of them
can help. Can anyone help me? As you can tell I am a
newbe when it comes to networks . I would be most
greatful for any help.

Thanks
