was: antivirus AVG free version ending support for Win98
|Your opinion of the Windows OS's is not the subject of the OP message.
|Unless I've lost perspective, after reading your messages,
|I believe Samantha asked for help with a new AV program that supports Win98.

|Replacing Win98 with Linux is not to the point, Was not asked for,
|nor implied in Samantha's Post.

You seem to have missed it AGAIN so I'll put it in big letters for you:
The OP mentioned **replacing** Windows 98.
|||||Unfortunately I cannot upgrade my system to XP
||||| Samantha
When people mention giving yet MORE
money to Micro$oft
to work around problems WHICH ARE CAUSED BY MICROSOFT,
I mention FREE
alternatives--which DON'T HAVE those problems.
This is particularly true when the new M$ "solution"
HAS THE SAME PROBLEM as what the poster currently has
(e.g. Microsoft-only insecurities).
The big 3 there are Internet Exploder (the LEAST-SECURE browser),
Outbreaks In Excess (the LEAST-SECURE mail client),
and Windoze (the family of LEAST-SECURE operating systems).
Any other facts you'd like to bring up?
