destro 75; Wanna secure 98SE install? Run a web search on 98lite and be amazed. You can actually make a pretty secure install by ripping out IE, Outlook, the scripting host, the MS bastardization of Java, and plopping the 95 desktop onto 98SE. That gets rid of 98% of the vectors that script kiddies can use. Run a reg cleaner to get rid of all the dangling COM stubs and dead shortcuts, and you might be surprised at how fast and stable clunky old 98 actually is, minus the garbage Unca Billy wanted us to have. A halfway decent firewall program, or a hardware firewall, and you are the 3rd to the next thing to bullet proof there is in the digital world.
