If it were the OSs designed for it might fulfill the desired effect, temporarily.

Just as the last posted suggested junk from 98 Guy was patched in a week or so, and is NOT part of a normal Win9X installation {MS XML4}, so rather obviously they introduce vulnerabilities that wouldn't be there to start with. NO ONE tests these for 9X vulnerabilities and they DO introduce new vulnerabilities into the OSs intended; nor even for compatibility beyond they install... On the other hand, if you want to *manual* check every day to see if Microsoft has offered any security or file fixes, AND check for whether they work in 9X, AND are willing to be a "guinea pig" for any new and COMPLETELY UNKNOWN 9X vulnerabilities, then sure, install; just don't expect anyone to be able to help fix your system and don't expect your software will be compatible... including any malware protection. Somewhere along the line since EOL, these people lost track of what they hoped to accomplish, keeping 9X alive... that requires someone actually test and NOT JUST FOR INSTALLATION, and creation of NEW browsers and malware programs... -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.org/ref/windows-main.htm Windows Info, Diagnostics, Security, Networking http://peoplescounsel.org The "real world" of Law, Justice, and Government ___--- |

Hi All, Hi ****-head. Have a look at 98 Guy's headers. I would not trust someone using Opera to build IE patches for an unsupported OS or browser. Oh, I'm using Opera am I? I think he is wearing black. Since when is the use of Opera diagnostic of a black-hat? You may as well accept those Windows Updates trojans that appear in your inbox (NOT) Why don't you take this up with the win-98 community at msfn.org? Go there and tell them what you think of this update: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?...dpost&p=888724 |
