I've moved this post from the thread you originally posted it in so that you are more likely to get the advice you are after.

594240 2007-09-23 09:01:00 Avast Home or Pro (http://www.avast.com/) should work with Windows 98.

Home is free, but you need to enter your email in, so you get a key.

To extend the licence, every 12-18 mths.

594241 2007-09-23 09:06:00 Thank you Jen and Speedy - much appreciated. I need something to stop idiots sending Viagra spam - past my use by date!!! NanaD (12752)
594242 2007-09-23 09:17:00 Eh, an AV program wont stop spam, it stops viruses.

Poptray might help (www.poptray.org)

Not too sure if it works with Windows 98 or not.

If it does, let me know if u need help

594243 2007-09-23 09:29:00 AVG works with Win98, if it wasn't updating you may just have had an old version.
Or if it wasn't old, then you can always do a manual download of the latest updates if the auto one isn't working.
