Hi I was wondering if someone could help me - the AVG Security has just informed me that it cannot protect / support my Windows 98 computer any more.
What should I do? is there any other free software to protect it?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Lisa

Definately get a firewall like Zonealarm, 98 has no firewall and with Zonealarm you'll get an alert as soon as something tries to access the internet, great for stopping virus infections from spreading.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

And a better OS. Come October that'll be 3 major versions of Windows behind. Even XP has now lost mainstream Microsoft support."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

I would seriously consider upgrading your PC/Operating system away from win98 too! It's really dated now and has more gaping holes in it than a cheap hooker.0
