MinGW. GCC on W98? by Lostgallifreyan
Does anyone know of a Win32 binary that does work on W98? I found a late 7Z package that claimed x86 support intended for Win32, but it would not run in 'DOS mode'. Meaning it couldn't even tell I was in a Windows session! :) I have the Dev-CPP-supplied MinGW but it's older, and I need to try a...

Making Win98 work on the internet by 98 Guy
First, Alan, I'm curious as to why you chose to post your question to this group: microsoft.public.win98.internet.windows_update I ask because that newsgroup has had no traffic for many months, if not years. I notice that you are posting via giganews. Does giganews not carry the much more...

Strange problem with Firefox - all links point back to same page by 98 Guy
This is Firefox 2.0.0.20. I typically have many Firefox instances or windows open at any one time (5 to 10 maybe). I tend to open a link "in a new window" instead of opening in a new tab or just following the link in the same window. I do this because it's faster to close the new instance or...

Will FF 4.x run on Win98 with kernal-ex? I have the last of ver. 3.x installed, but that annoying unfixable bug that causes it to go into offline mode quite often really ****es me off. I dont want more FF bloat, so I wont even consider anything over ver 4 (which may not run in 98 anyhow). Then...
