Am I the only one who thinks Win ME sucks?

Brian Frank

I bought the promo upgrade to ME from Win98 only. TONS of problems. Tried a clean install, still problems. More crashes than 98, more blue screens. When I found out that Win2k supported all my apps except for a few dos games, I jumped ship.

i posted the other day bout my windows 98 internet problem and i got this as a reply: I've seen this happen to W98 when 1) AOL messes up the TCP/IP connections, 2) an old version of Ad-aware removes a registry key disabling IE and 3) when a virus, trojan or BHO has attached itself.

uncontrollable mouse

I have a computer that is running Windows 98. At times the mouse will go crazy and start clicking on things by itself. Sometimes the windows that pop up are internet pop ups other times they are from the control panel.
