Yes! I saw the part about "Cannot upgrade to WINDOWS XP" STILL not an indication
of any interest in "LINUX". Does not help the OP with either Win98 or WinXP or finding
a new AV Program that supports WIN98.
WHICH, BTW, is what Samantha, the "OP", lest you forget, expressly asked for.
Linux cannot Fix WinXP any more than Fire Fox CAN repair Internet Explorer.
IMHO, you ARE on the Wrong Forum, as was previously suggested. STOP PUSHING your
Personal AGENDA.
