Free online virus scan problem

My WinME Firefox browser machine has in the past used Trend Micro with good results and satisfaction in my virus scans. After a scan last week I decided to do another one as advised to do one each week. This time however, I get this message: HouseCall is not available for your platform You can not use Trend Micro HouseCall on your machine because your processor type or your operating system are not supported. I have tried everything to assure that I have the same PC that I have used on every previous scan. It seems that when Trend Micro starts checking for requirements, a prompt appears that ask me to: "Manually select or change the Housecall Kernel" Although I have no idea what this means, I place a check on the square that indicates that I agree with the license agreement, which is what that is. I do not get any options to choose a Kernel, but I immediately get the message that I pasted above. As I said, I have used Trend Micro repeatedly and as recently as last week, I wonder if you guys have any idea what is going on. I noticed at Google that people seem to have problems with different error messages. So if you can give me a clue, I will really appreciate it. My WinMe is an old machine and other free scans out there require newer models, which for me is really sucking at this time. I hope that I posted this on the correct forum. Thanks in advance.
