Arrow: I have a nearly identical setup (running processes). Not too sure what promon.exe is, process monitor? You however do not need to have avgamsvr and avgcc running in the background. I do keep avgemc running and have the resident sheild active. Some people say this is redundant, but I do it anyway. I do one check once daily for signature updates. You can test this by doing a search for eicar, which is a fake virus. Download the file and then try opening it. Resident shield will pop up with a virus warning.

Just to clear things up, I was only proving that these updates are also for 98SE. When I try to install them, I get a message that says that I need to have 98SE installed in order to install these viewers. That is why I thought I would ask wheter the USP I installed may have changed something that the installler looks for. Just trying to solve this and not pointing any fingers or making any accusations.

I beg yo differ, here is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en And here is a direct quote from the System Requirements: Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000 Service Pack 3, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows ME, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP

Just curious, After coming to this site, I was wondering if the install of one of these unofficial service packs may be what is keeping me from updating my office viewers. Last year sometime I installed sesp1.exe on my machine. I have had no problems with it. Earlier this year, MS came out with new viewers for their office products. I do not have MS Office nor do I want it any any other clone. I would like to be able to view these files though and have used the free viewers MS provided. I have an Word, Excel and Powerpoint viewer. I am using the 1997 versions of these because when I try to install the 2003 versions an error message comes up saying that I must have 98SE in order to use these. Well I do have 98SE. 4.10.222A, so I was wondering if something in sesp1.exe changed something that the MS install programs was looking for to verify that I had SE? Everything else about my system is up to date except that update that ended in 711 and this happened before that.
