Don't be sad you're running win 98. At least you can connect to the web with an unpatched win 98 machine and not worry about being infected by a virus within 5 minutes while you try to get everything patched.
I received mine a couple days ago, but haven't used it yet. I run on Win98, sadly, so I guess I oughta soon.
if ya see a sucker, cut him, don’t like perpetrators

Quick zephyrs blow, vexing daft Jim.
thats why you unplug your net connection and have the blaster fix on a cd already. only an idiot would reformat/reinstall any other way. you DO know you can download and save all the updates to a disc yourself, making this "update" cd completely worthless right?Originally Posted by Brotherman

anyone want to burn one of these, and send them to me (seeing as they were sent out for free, and everything on them in available for download, I would assume it's fine). I'll be happy to pay for shipping.
You forgot 1 sinario. User get's new PC with 2000 or XP installed unpatched. They don't have this CD and unless they can download it at a friends place or something they have no way of getting it without risking infection in minutes. This is a very realistic sinario for a causal user and that's even if they bother to be worried about patching it at all. They likely would just get infected without knowing what's going on.Originally Posted by Dragonmaster Dyne
Why not just order the official from MS and pay nothing. It also comes with antivirus and firewall software that you can use for about a year.Originally Posted by Criticom

Because, it looks like it took about 2 months to get the CD from Microsoft.Originally Posted by Brotherman
If I got it from someone on here, it's only take a week or two.
