Default Last Rites for Win9x

Quite a few since the CD was released, particularly if you've kept up with
IE updates, WMP updates, maybe a couple of others. Maybe a dozen or more. If
I have to do a clean install this weekend, which may be the case, I'll find
out. My routine is to install 98SE, then run the SecUp CD, then head for
Windows Updates.

Out of curiousity, how many security updates did Microsoft actually
produce for Win98 in recent years?
