My sister is using Windows 98SE. Does the WMF security hole affect
her system?

There is no patch for Win9x/ME.

| With WMF we want to be very clear: the Windows 9x platform is not
| vulnerable to any "Critical" attack vector.

Well, that's a statement directly from MS. The hole itself existist
in *any* Windows version so far, but there are differences in how
to exploit the hole. So far, no exploits "working" on Windows 9x/Me
have been found.

If you still feel unsecure, you *may* try a third party patch, with
*no* support or recommandation from Microsoft what so ever:
