From all the indications I have seen and read, I do not believe that this is a problem that Windows 9X is afflicted by, however I would not take any chances and strongly recomend researching the Microsoft Knowledge base from their web site to find out for sure.
But for the most part I believe this is a Win NT, 2K, XP and Win 2003 problem
