Text Box: Microsoft Announces End Of Support For Windows 98 
and Windows Me
   	On June 30, 2006, Microsoft will bring a close to Extended Support for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me. That means no more public or technical support, including security updates. 
   Microsoft will continue to host a self-service website that will provide information on troubleshooting, configuration, and other how-to content, but you are pretty much on your own.
   	If you are currently using any of these operating systems, we urge you to upgrade your software immediately due to the security risks that will most certainly increase following the retirement of Microsoft’s support. 
	If you aren’t certain that your current system will be able to meet the minimum requirements for an upgrade, call our office and we’ll be happy to help!
