    Hi Shane :)
    This is strange, today I was setting up a new customer
    and tryed to install navigator on a his new gateway machine
    running Windows 98. I never seen this before, it gave
    an illegal operation at the point of chooseing the install
    directory and stopped the install and kicked out of the
    install all together. I wish I was able to write down the
    message so you would have more to go on but my customer
    was standing over my shoulder and freaked out when it
    happend. ( I hate inexperienced computer users ) lol
    He had a virus program running but I disabled it when I
    made a second attempt. Got the same thing :(
    Needless to say with my customer thinking I was screwing
    up his computer with my software I didn't make a third
    attempt. (Thank God I had my new wcppp running I got
    him online useing that) But I have never seen any error's
    when installing navigator. Is there something I should check
    in the future or advise my customers before installing
    navigator on these new systems running Windows 98.

    Thanks,
    John

    Well, it seems that the 'second edition' of 98 does have a few more
    problems during installation than does the initial release. I think the
    only thing that would solve these problems is a complete rewrite of the
    setup programs. I don't know if/when that will happen with the current navigator.
