galahs Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 That list is awesome!But I guess my questions/comments are usefull for the noobs out there:- is it best to install all those updates even if you don't experience any problems on your pc- writing (critical) next to the important security updates would be appreciated- I hope some one has every update backed up offline and maybe on another webhost in case Microsoft decide to pull all Windows98SE files from their siteKeep up the good work guys!

noguru Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 This being the case, am I leaving my self open by not installing any other critical updates?Not if you are very carefull......just like you don't need seatbelts if you drive careful.....I mean, you really never know so if I where you I would at least instal critical security updates. There are others besides the ones for IE, like WMF and MDAC. You don't gain anything if you don't install these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erpdude8 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the links for 280448, and the info about 318307 --- is there any information about 280448? I still don't know exactly what it is and the problem its supposed to fix ... anyone, anyone?see this Toshiba Europe support page, soporific. they have some info on what the Q280448 patch does for Win98se.I would install Q276602 hotfix first before installing Q280448 since Q280448 has version 4.10.2228 of the pci.vxd file and 280448 contains only the newer pci.vxd file while 276602 has ios.vxd (4.10.2224), mshdc.inf and pci.vxd (4.10.2227) files.

PROBLEMCHYLD Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Q276602 is in the list of hotfixes section and also in the obseletesection which is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soporific Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Just a heads up that 888113 is replaced by 920670. - the_guythanks heaps man.Q276602 is in the list of hotfixes section and also in the obselete section which is it? I have cleared up the confusion - q276602 is back in the main list (i've determined its a good idea to install it because of mshdc.inf which is not installed with any other hotfix. The inf file looks like it could be useful in certain circumstances.)23rd Nov 2006:Added to Main list: kb834158, q280448Moved from Main list to obsolete list: kb888113 Moved from obsolete list back to Main list: q276602 Please thank the following for the latest additions: erpdude8, the_guy, & problemchyld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myelin Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 (this thread is useless buried -- i like to access it instantly while browsing the forum -- so, i'm lazy, what's a guy to do?)Hey Soporific, the link to your thread is saved as my Bookmark. So whenever i suspect that you might have updated some stuff i check it right from my bookmarks. May be everybody else would have done the same.

NativeTexan Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I am attempting to install the SecurityUpDates for IE v6 but when attempting to do the "Ie6upd.exe" it tells me I need to have the IE v6 first. I do have it installed on my system with SP1 and internet tools. SYSInfo shows "IE 5 6.0.2800.1106" where should I start?
