    Microsoft operating system is, yet again, completely vulnerable. A critical warning is as bad as it gets.

    However, hackers will not take weeks to exploit it. They will take hours or days. Patch now!

    98 users are just screwed, no more support remember???

    98 and ME will continue to have full Microsoft support until at least 2006. Originally they were due to drop the OS's last month, but as the majority of the world still use them (and never upgraded to XP) Microsoft couldn't afford to piss off such a huge part of their customer base!
