Title: WinMX for WIN98SE?
Post by: newswatcher on February 14, 2004, 11:00:28 PM

Me again.

Just why is WinMX P2P protection only available for 2000/NT/XP when they (WinMX) obviously support WIN98? I use WinMX and don't use iMesh (which your Avast) does add protection. I guess I could individually scan files from WinMX...

Why?

Thanks!

Hi, in Win9x is unable to determine what is the folder where WinMX stores received files. On 2000/NT/XP is used other mechanism of protection, so WinMX can be supported... pavels
