I don't always follow the latest news but is this a hack or for real? (I am running ie5.5 on 98se with "Automatically check for Internet Explorer updates" turned on)...

"Thank you for your interest in Windows Update

Windows Update is the online extension of Windows that helps you get the most out of your computer.

The latest version of Windows Update is only available on computers that are running Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows XP."

 
Yeah, it was a matter of time. I guess they have already started it and will not support 98 or ME anymore.
 
I just manually went to windowsupdate.microsoft.com and it worked finr on my 98 machine, so you might want to try that. I have never used the automatic updater so I am not sure if that goes somewhere else.

I had that error message on my 98FE (first edition) machine.

I upgraded to IE6 and it went away. Im not using automatic updates though.
 
I just manually updated my P-233mmx W/ 98SE last night. Just like the others I don't do the auto-update. Don't really know why I updated the box since I mostly only use it for a mp3 player.
