Tedd;
Where did you get the information that says Windows 98 is supported?
Windows 98 is not supported:
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/requirements.mspx

I am guessing he found information about GIANT licensed customers, but would
need the URL to confirm. We do not install on Win9x.

TED, most people have bought new pc's and are
using XP. I would not even recommend this product
with ME.Thoghg I have not had a problem with it at
all. Its always a good idea to stay up to date on all
applications. Take care buddy.

Microsoft has a clearly stated support lifecycle policy for their products,
Windows included:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/lifecycle/default.mspx

Although Microsoft's antispyware product is based on Giant's existing
product, it is a substantial new development effort. Such an effort is made
using the best current tools and technology, and targetting the versions of
Windows still in support at the projected release date of the product. I'm
not sure there isn't more to this than I've noted here, but that's a good
bit of it, I suspect.
