| 365491 | 2005-06-20 14:49:00 | I made the mistake of downloading some "critical updates" from the Microsoft website for Windows 98. Since then I have been unable to print anything. I have tried deleting and recreating my printer, increasing the timeout settings, removing the updates, reinstalling the driver to no avail. It won't print from any application nor will it print from the DOS prompt. Can anyone help? | Sue_Cain (8385) | ||

| 365493 | 2005-06-20 21:12:00 | Uninstall the updates. Its much better to use 3rd party protection for your PC. A decent firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware. And common sense on the net. Downloading MS fixes is like sticking bandaids on a sieve. Eeventually you don't end up with a bowl but a mess. |
