Sirs,
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
I need to update a PC with the Windows 98 Critical Updates and as this PC is
offline at teh moment, I need to manual dowload the updates so I can install
them onto the Windows 98 PC.

Many thanks
Barry

Hi Torgeir,
Many thanks for the first link, I have managed to download and save all the
updates available, (even if the PC does not need them! Grin!).

I shall now be installing these updates tommorrow on teh Windows 98 PC. I
am assuming this is streightforward.

Regards
Barry

Dear Torgeir
Update to last response, about 15 of the updates failed to download, but I
hope the ones I have will work!
