I just got here and found there is no longer support for WD 98SE any more. I have used this site for years and don't even attempt to go anywhere else for help. Now I am at loss where to go to get help for my WD 98SE. I can't upgrade to a newer version of Windows as my computer is too old to run a newer version. And I can't afford to buy a newer computer because we are barely making it financially in the economic depressed area where I live and my husband may not even have a job after this month. (another business closing down) I have had WD 98 SE ever since it came out. I have never had but one virus and on Trojan on my computer. I use Anti-virus software, anti-Trojan software, Anti-Spyware software and have a great firewall that has protected me all these years. My husband has a newer computer than I do and runs Windows XP and is always having a problem with his computer. I have never had to reformat my hard drive, but my husband has had to reformat several times since he started using WD XP. I have been a lot happier with the performace of my older computer using WD 98SE than my husband has been with his newer computer using WD XP. Can no one suggest a site that my offer help for people having to still use WD 98SE? I am having problems right now with my email (IE 6-Outlook Express).
Thanks for any suggestions where I can get help.

Sheila, we still support win98/SE but Microsoft has stopped supporting it. We still have a forum for issues with win98/SE and Outlook Express via our Internet Related Issues forum.
Windows95/98/ME forum link:

And Internet Related Issues forum link:

The second link is where you post to ask your question about Outlook Express/IE6.

Re: Photo Lady
After posting here, I went back to the main menu and discovered the Internet Related Issues forum concerning email & posted my problem there concerning Outlook Express. But thanks for answering my post because I might not have discovered the link on my on and your answer would have been a life saver to me.
Thanks,
Sheila:)

Time for a new OS
I have been migrating all my poor friends running 95, 98, 2000, and ME to ubuntu linux. It's free and will run on older hardware. Its graphical interface is similar to windows and I've had fewer service calls. For internet, email, photos, music etc. it's completely capable.

Im glad to see as many running it as there are :)
