As of a few days ago, the updates site was still up.
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com

You will need at least IE 5.1 or 5.0.2314.1003 installed IIRC.

Once you have IE6 SP1 installed, you'll still be able to update via Windows
Update website (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com). No updates have been
released for Win98 since 11 Jul-06.

You are so right, I was looking at the site with another computer that had
all the updates, therefore as you know it does not show the security
updates !! Look at the site with the needed computer and there they were.
Thanks
Fred

1. Get Internet Explorer 6:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

2. Go to www.windowsupdate.com
Get everything there.

If you have problems, due to not being able to get online, for instance, I
have the whole schmear on CDs. Email me "updates_at_grystmill.com".
