right, see http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/97866)

Try K9 -> http://keir.net/k9_begin.html (not sure if it supports x64 Systems) or switch to Mozilla Thunderbird completely! x64 version, see: http://www.vector64.com/Mozilla/Thunderbir...n64-K8N-X03.exe

A very nice script that actually puts some real useful stuff in the support information Also fits very well into the unattended section Further Information for your editing pleasure: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms811550.aspx

Is there already any solution for localizing these files? Hex-editing the files line by line can't be the right way, is it?

reuploaded the 1st broken German bar here:

So you're going to plan something like "Bashrath the Sneaky's Driverpack"(http://driverpacks.net/DriverPacks/) but for Win9x?

I guess you could call it a fork, although I don't want to turn the SP too much into a "Windows customization tool", but to remain close to the original (Gape's version). That's why, the version number is still 2.1x Checking the hotfixes list, I think I almost got most of the updates, e.g.: - IE cumulative- & roots update is already contained in the unofficial IE6&OE6 update - KB931836 is not relevant for German systems - KernelEx is a great addon, but I'm not sure whether to add it (already), due to unforeseen side effects Please let me know, if there's something missing...

you just need tools like "reshack" or "exescope" to edit the apropriate files

Thanks to this vivid community, the SE SP could be enhanced with various new additions and fixes. Thank you Feel free to try out and post some feedback! Changelog (so far): -- No more beta Download here: http://www.nandlstadt.com/win98sp.htm

Tried that already, but it didn't help... But the solution is quite simple: WindowsUpdate checks, if the files "Kb891711.exe" & "Q891711.dll" are physically available in the path "C:\windows\system\Kb891711". The registry entries are completely meaningless here.

The German version is also available here: http://www.creopard.de/downloads.htm

The patch works very good so far! (Adapted it for a German Win98 SE) The question is: After installing the "unofficial Q891711.exe" (with the modified user*.* files), how can I trick Windows Update not to install their "windows98-kb891711-v2-deu.exe" file with the obsolete workaround files (KB891711.EXE and Q891711.DLL)? Is there a registry entry that will prevent WU from installing their version? Otherwise, would KB891711.EXE and Q891711.DLL interfere with the modified user32.dll/user.exe files?

Tried all that already, but the dll-corruption assumption is an interesting point... But why just the defrag.exe? It seems to be an unexplainable side effect... (for now)

That's what I thought as well, but I got 2 user-feedbacks that had exactly the same problem (see error message from the 1st post). I triple checked everything until I left out the German WinME defrag.exe in the Win98 SE SP installation process. (Reinstalling Money99 didn't change anything.) The inf-install file was (concerning to the defrag.exe copy-routines) exactly the same as the English version. However I still think it has something to do with the inf-installaton process, i.e. simply overwriting Win98 Defrag with WinME Defrag using the Explorer works fine and Money99 also does not complain. But installing WinME Defrag with the Win98 SE SP installation routine breaks Money99... I'm at a loss... I have no explanation for that kind of behaviour

You're invited to test it yourself!

Hi folks, I just wanted to inform you, that overwriting the original Win98SE-defrag.exe with the defrag.exe from WinME breaks the "Microsoft Money99" installation that results in the following error message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program: .....\money.exe R6025 -pure virtual function call I'm not sure why this affects the defrag.exe but it's a reproducible error. Keep that in mind, since I got mails from various people about that, after including the WinME-defrag into the German inofficial Win98SE ServicePack!

Hello Gape! Nice to hear you'll be back and you didn't abandon the project! But it seems you have to register first, before you can download anything

Updated: German Windows 98 SE SP 2.1c New: Unofficial cumulative IE6/OE6 SP1 Update Pack

...Because this intention already sucked when I tried hexediting the winboot.sys. Guess not everyone's that deep into bits'n'bytes

Is there any chance of localizing the new fdisk and format files without an hexeditor?
