Windows 9x/ME are not affected by the recent RPC buffer overflow exploit,
but there are plenty of other patches you need, and you ought to go to
www.windowsupdate.com - this should be visited monthly or so, anyway. Get
all critical and recommended updates. Also protect your computer or network
with a decent firewall to block ports. www.sygate.com has a free firewall
for personal use.
Also, you need good AV software, and you need to keep it updated regularly.
Check out www.grisoft.com for one nice product - they even make a free
edition.
