By the way, speaking as someone who uses Microsoft
products for almost everything, I find it difficult to
swallow that so many people have the problem described in
Q278558 (4 people I know that work for different companies
in my hometown were having the problem, and nobody could
find an answer until I stumbled across it on this message
board), yet Microsoft makes it almost impossible to find
the fix, and adds the disclaimer that they are not
reponsible if it breaks everything in your network. This
should be available on Windows Update, not a password
secured server. Where's the help Microsoft????? I know
98 is getting put out to pasture, so we need it fixed now
before that happens.
