Since Windows Update Restored is based on centralized servers, what happens if somebody wants to take them down, remove content, or purchase it? Are you willing to offer WUR over decentralized networks?

Nope, WUR stays on those servers, and won't change of owner. If somebody wants to take them down, if it's for a good reason, then we'll do it.

With IE5 up to sp2, v3.windowsupdaterestored.com works "fine" in 98SE and 98FE. If you install IE55 or later, "cannot display page" problem occurs.

95B and NT4sp6 seems to work fine with IE55sp2.

And this project seems to have omitted the support of non-English language in Windows 9x. Hope it will be improved.

(Simplified Chinese version of Windows 98/Me only detected one update: .NET Framework 1.1 English)

All languages are included in this project. But the inventories are hard to get in all the supported languages. As for V4 updates, they're firstly added in english to properly fix them, and then translated.

And there is a problem:

Are Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, or Windows Millennium Edition critically affected by one or more of the vulnerabilities that are addressed in this security bulletin?
Yes. Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Millennium Edition are critically affected by this vulnerability. Critical security updates for these platforms are available and can be downloaded only from the Windows Update Web site

Yes. Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Millennium Edition are critically affected by this vulnerability. Critical security updates for these platforms are available and can be downloaded only from the Windows Update Web site

 

Which means that later updates might not be found in Internet Archive

Finding updates is not hard at all, but finding inventories or making them from scratch is very hard. And using Windows 9x or 2000 in 2023 with Windows Update Restored does not make your system secure at all.
