| 197413 | 2003-12-04 22:07:00 | Any one notice that the Windows 98 updates site is gone? they said that they would stop supporting in Jan 04 but it's gone now. I hope every one got their patches saved on cd for a rebuild if needed. |

| 197417 | 2003-12-04 22:15:00 | I thought they'd stopped already - but still had limited support for Win98SE | somebody (208) | ||

| 197419 | 2003-12-04 22:20:00 | Microsoft have stopped supporting Windows 98 - what that means is that they will not help you out with Installation Problems, they will not provide updates for any flaws found, and you're on your own from the date they stopped supporting it. However the downloads are still available for it at the moment. The site is still around - www.microsoft.com |

| 197420 | 2004-03-29 02:09:00 | Thanks! especially for the link to the updates page, my C drive died and Windows 98 with it, and downloading for future events seemed like an excellent idea, but seemed to have gone from Microsoft website....I'm now happily downloading.
