is your firewall set to allow the VM access to the network?
What network card drivers did you install in Win98? You shouldn't need to
install any, since the ones needed will be automatically installed, switching
them out will cause problems.
How is your TCP/IP configured in your Win98 VM? It should be set up similar
to how the host is, i.e. host is dhcp, VM should be dhcp.
When you've selected NAT, are you getting an IP address in Win98? This
generally works, unless you've got a 3rd party firewall.
