By the end of the year, Microsoft will stop offering support or designing security patches for Windows 98. I'm sure this will be a bigger problem for you as time goes by.


So what do you suggest : Buying XP ? I have little to no problems with Windows 98se, but I read all the time about folks still having problems with XP.

A friend of mine also has Windows 98 and loves it. I know Microsoft is also ending support for Windows Millenium Edition. I have had no problems with XP since the last major update two years ago. I think the people who have problems (and the ones I work on) do not use virus/spyware protection, have an active firewall, and/or use the security updates.

If I were you, I would limit my risk by using theFirefox browser instead of IE. When it gets closer to Christmas, buy a nice computer with XP. You are probably at the stage where your computer couldn't handle an upgrade to XP.
