According to their website,
"Trend Micro’s HouseCall requires the following system components:
Operating System:
Microsoft Windows SP6a/2000,SP2/XP,SP1/2003, Vista and Windows MCE 2005
Linux Distributions that supports libc6
Solaris 2.6 and above
Software:
Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 6.0 or later
Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later
Camino 1.0 or later"

It appears WinMe is no longer supported.
