See post 107. Click on that link. Then scroll down to "Shields Up" and click that one. Now scroll down to the blue Shields Up banner and click on "common ports". That will run a test of the most common ports on your computer and give you the results.

Hopefully Win98 is safe.

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!

Shortly after hooking up to the internet via my computer yesterday I was booted offline by the MSBlast worm....I immediately switched over to my virtually-virus-immune MSNTV and logged onto Free Republic where I ran across this thread...And now my computer has been purged of the worm and the Windows patch has been installed.

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!
