Microsoft has encountered a critical vulnerability in Windows 98, 98 SE
and Windows Me that it simply cannot fix, the company acknowledged
Friday. The flaw affects Windows Explorer and after investigating the
issue, Microsoft said it would need to reengineer a significant amount
of the operating system.

PT, this is a link to a post which was made by somebody to a tech site.
I would be far more interested in a link to a really for real MS website
with this kind of info. This page though, merely contains what I would
consider to be heresay.
Along these lines though, I note that MS just made EIGHT "Critical
Updates" available for XP. What these updates really do, who can be
sure? I'm still undecided about whether or not I will install them
because I simply don't trust Microsoft enough to believe that they won't
start sabotaging XP in order to drive people away from it and into the
....warm ...loving arms of Vista.
