What do I think? I think you didn't read a word of the forum before posting. That's what I think:

Yep,

I have spent the better part of a few hours going to shall we say NOT the Internets Finest Web Sites "For Research Purpose :P" and can say some sites are launching as many as 10 .wmf files from one page, each one has a different payload.

I do pity the folks that can become infected that have not found or tried some sort of protection method from this. :-(

i've tried the latest eset patch ..seems better.
I cant expect tooo much..GDI in 98 sukz.

Sorry, not very sober atm, but the latest eset patch, it's not that bad IMO. Still bit of a mem hog, but that's 98 memory handeling for ya. The man who writes all singular patches for Nod32 peeps made this..he's good.

New patch they have is better...Beats being open to exploit.
You don't have a choice. Patch, has an un-install if ya hate it.

Re: Win 98/ME patch

said by KyeU See Profile :

Never heard reports of it causing any slowdown or crashes.
Sorry, but it's not what I had seen.

Look here:
- SpannerITWks
»Windows MetaFiles still vulnerable :

"Well i installed the ESET patch
...
I retried a number of those WMF tests including the real Live ones. On my 98SE PC i didn't notice anything different from the past few days of testing. I got exactly the same results as before with the usual protections kicking in, and/or nothing untoward occurring. Even without my AV running and allowing the tests through my defensive apps as before there was no change."


- and then caffeinator
»Windows MetaFiles still vulnerable :

"Since I have a 98SE box
...
I tried the eset one...called a GDI patch..shoulda known..it ate a whole 1% off my starting resources. UGH. Slowed the box like mad."


So maybe, more experiences or sources?

Charles.

Has anyone had success with the Win 98/ME patch from NOD32? Is it reasonably safe?
So far, I've only heard good things about it.

Never heard reports of it causing any slowdown or crashes.

I'm wondering if I should distribute this to my win98-using friends & family...

Read back just a little up the thread, and you'll also see info + links of my posts with Pics of the ESET 98 fix install i did !

Spanner
Yep, I missed your post the first time, sorry about that.

I guess others may not know that this patch is available. Have pretty much gone to the major sites and linked back here to let others know.
