I agree it's going to be tough supporting Win9x because of the fact that Win95 is no longer supported and Win98 soon will not be, but that still doesn't change the fact that some people are working with a limited budget, so upgrading is not an option. Sometimes, you just have to do what you can with the hardware and software you have, despite the lack of official support.

Don't bother even :looking further into securing Win9x. It is a total waste of time. I would tend to agree with these statements particularly since Win95 is already not supported by MS and Win98 is going be unsupported Jan 16 '04 Raoul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
