 Maybe somebody out there can be of assisitance:
 
I have windows 98. 2nd edition.
Recently i have the following trouble:
 
My Norton Antvirus is broken.  Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't
help. The Norton site says i must uninstall, extract some kind of
file from the Windows 98 stystem disk, register  a file
called Wintrust and reinstall.
 
I can't update the Yahoo spy checker.
 
I downloaded Ad aware to kill the spy programs but it gets stuck at the
end of the scan.
 
I keep getting nasty pop up messages that say i am infected by spyware
or that Norton Antivirus says it is safe to use the computer.
 
I have trouble getting to my homepage.
 
Has anyone gotten out of a similar fix?
 
Barry
