OT OS issue

[Zscoundrel]

My darling bride just updates her 'doze 98 box and TOTALLY fubared it.  
It locks up 3 times a day instead of the usual twice a week and  she is 
not able to connect  to a secure website she uses to VPN into the work 
LAN. 

Any ideas on what needs to be done to fix it.  It has been several years 
since I lowered myself to tinker with a 'doze box that I sort of forget 
the drill.

This week Bill Gates announced that he would like to see the limits 
removed on H1-B visas. 

Isn't it good enough that he can afford to BUY India without having to 
bring it here for storage???
