Now that MS has pretty much ceased supporting WinME, where can I
download the updates/patches?

James,

The same place that you always have. By either going on line with the
system and visiting the Windows Update site or if using a different system
by visiting the Windows Update Catalogue
(http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...en/default.asp) and the
Microsoft Download Centre (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/) and
downloading the patches from there. If using the latter routes you can
save the patches to disk and then burn them to a CD for use whenever you
require them.

I'd recommend you start by visiting the Windows Update Catalogue and have
a look at what is listed there for the Windows Millennium operating
system.

Once a year, I like to reformat my drive on the laptop and reinstall
WinME, which now leaves me vulnerable, as I have no patches/updates
to reinstall!

My laptop is a Pentium 266, so XP or Vista is out of the question,
and I cannot afford a new laptop, nor could I justify the expense if
I could as I only use it for Internet and Word Processing.

Please point me to any link here that has the patches available for
download.

I thank you all in advance!
