Are you installing via Windows Update?...
<quote>
How does the extended support for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and
Windows Millennium Edition affect the release of security updates for these
operating systems?
Microsoft will only release security updates for critical security issues.
Non-critical security issues are not offered during this support period....
Note: Critical security updates for these platforms may not be available
concurrently with the other security updates provided as part of this
security bulletin. They will be made available as soon as possible following
the release. When these security updates are available, you will be able to
download them *only* from the Windows Update Web site.
