But what does it mean "ending support"? Does it mean that my 98SE will stop working on a particular day? Or does it mean that there will be no more updates to the system? If the latter, I'm not concerned. I'm sure that most of the major vulnerabilities and problems with 98SE have been long patched and, besides, what virus writers will be targeting a buggy-whip MS program anyway? As long as it continues to work, and AOL 5.0 keeps working, I'll stick with them. I have all of the reinstall CDs, etc., that I'll ever need. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Pete Schermerhorn, in the glorious Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts
