If so, your internet service has likely been hijacked by hackers, and needs to be cleaned. I'd like to help you put an end to these problems. It's all very simple.

Using Thunderbird on TEO Operating Systems

I have a dual boot setup. Win98se on drive C: Win2000 on drive D: I use Win98 more than win2k, and I have Mozilla Thunderbird installed in Win98, but sometimes I go online using Win2000, because some sites refuse my older browsers. I loaded the .exe from Thunderbird located in the c:\program files\mozilla\thunderbird (the one installed to Win98). It could not find the email folder and wanted me to setup email accounts. I DO NOT want to install it twice and thus have to download and maintain two instances of the same thing. I dont mind having separate browsers and other software,

Free and not free AV for 98 and how to get around the problem

With apologies to all involved, I am /really/ getting tired of the never-ending "Free AV for 98?" threads. Of course, nothing will stop them, even this post, since most people are too lazy to read even a hundred old posts, being absolutely certain that they are the first person ever faced with the particular problem at hand. Don't even mention Google. One would think it didn't exist. (As much as I hate the Web, Google IS generally quite useful, as long as you don't forget that the result most worth looking at it is not necessarily on the first page, let alone /the first link

Printers absent from Device Manager

This Win98SE PC has two printers: Brother Laser connected LPT (default) -- no problems Brother Inkjet (multifunction) connected USB(v.2) -- too slow. I suspect the Inkjet prints slowly because of standard installation including Brother bundled software (mainly for scanner) which I do not use and have uninstalled. As many as 10 drivers were associated with this printer, and I have already identified for removal that for network scanning, since I do not scan via network. All the others specify either print or USB connection or pseudodrive (card reader.) I planned to look at the l

Stopping the default "My Documents" folder

I have Win98se. Everytime I want to save anything from a website, or something I created, such as a .Doc file, I am always given the f__king "My Documents" folder as my choice. If it's a picture from the web, I get the "My Pictures" folder inside "my Documents". I DO NOT use these folders at all. I DO NOT want them coming up as the default. I have lived with this for years, and really want to put an end to it. I want the ROOT directory ( C:\ ) as my default. That way I can choose my folder directly, without having to first drop down to to the root. There is always this extra s

USB Drive for Win 98 SE ?

My new HP USB flash drive, model v125w (version unknown, 2 or 3,HP does'nt know or support) works well on main XP computer, but am having difficulties with drivers for 98SE supplied at http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/usbmsd98.php. They're not making it possible for system to recognize the drive. BIOS of my backup 98se box shows board supports usb v.2, so i'm guessing that there's a way to make the flash drive functional. Has anyone here had experience with these or other drivers that work with flash drive, either version 2 or 3? -- RobF

The Windows Welcome Song

Hello, this is a bit of an unusual question but this was the most relevant forum I could find to ask it... I'm trying to find out who the original composer for the Windows 98 welcome song is. Please realize I don't mean the "Microsoft Sound". The song is called WELCOM98.wav and begins with a deep clock chime and a heavy bassline, is exactly 30 seconds in length and has a tempo of 75 BPM. (video for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMYnNNiH4is) I did try going through the secret Windows 98 credits but unfortunately they are listed alphabetically not by position. If any

[OT] Another "niggle" vanquished

No reply is needed to this. It is just a partial followup to the long thread I started, "WinZip 8.0 running v. slowly". In that thread, I mentioned a large number of "niggles" which had developed, over a long period (but especially in the last few months), in my Win98SE installation (dating from January 2007). The one I most urgently needed to deal with was the very slow running of WinZip 8.0, and that seems to have been sorted out (although further tests must be made) by uninstalling it, and replacing it with WinZip 9.0 SR1 (as someone here suggested). Another niggle which had

7-Zip

As far as I can tell from doing a few experiments with 7-Zip, reading the documentation that comes with it, and browsing a few pages of the 7-Zip Support forum at SourceForge, 7-Zip entirely lacks an absolutely basic feature of WinZip, which is essential for saving and restoring complex structures of files and directories (folders): namely, that you can add to a specified archive any specified set of files together with all its path information. This seems especially odd, as 7-Zip is perfectly capable of understanding the directory structure of an archive created by WinZip. It dis

Unwanted Downloads

Just a few minutes ago, while on Yahoo, I got an unwanted download again. The first time happened last night. The one download from last night I was not able to stop it. The one from tonight I stopped it by doing a CTRL/ALT/DEL and closing the program. At least I think I stopped the full download. Is there a way to be asked before a download occurs? This is very unusual as thi has never happened to me in the many years I'm on the Internet. Thanks to all for responding. http://www.vdare.com/francis/index.htm In memory of Dr. Sam Francis.

WinZip 8.0 running v. slowly

I last installed Win98SE a little over three years ago, and a number of niggles have developed. I'm still putting off that evil day when I have to completely reinstall Win98SE and start to dual-boot with Ubuntu Linux, which will probably be my next main OS. Meanwhile, it would help quite a lot if there were a quick fix for one particular niggle. When I'm using WinZip 8.0 to add a lot of files to a *.zip archive, this routine operation, which used to be over in a few minutes or even seconds, now runs at a snail's pace, sometimes only adding one or two files a second, and taking ho

A way to decompress .SIT (stuffit) files in win98

My copy of Virtual PC 3.0 came with a version of Stuffit Expander for Windows 95 preinstalled when i got it over 10 years ago, so I know it's possible, but I don't know how to transfer it to my windows 98 computer as I did not have the installer.

Hi, If you use a USB flash drive ("thumb drive") and you can't copy another file to that drive, with an error message such as "access denied" or "unable to create...", it is possible you may have used up the space available, used for the names of files and folders/directories in the "root" folder/directory. To "fix" this, move (copy then delete) some files to the hard drive. Then create a folder(s) at the root directory. Afterwards, copy files into a folder. The "root" directory has a limit to the number of entries (filenames and folder names) it can accommodate.
