What is status of Silverlight on 98?

[Guest Smith]

I have heard that M$ is promoting Silverlight as cross platform.

 

Is it including Win 98 as a cross platform system?

Apparently not.

 

Silverlight system requirements:

What is Silverlight, really?

LOL! "Cross-platform" doesn't include obsolete platforms.

Very True and we must accept that the support that Windows 98 users get will

be from Microsoft supported Windows 98 Newsgroups and from the self-help area

of Microsoft articles within Technet and the Windows 98 Center.

True, it is obsolete but I would say Windows 98 Second Edition is good and

safe as Chris Quirke, MVP shows us in his website about Risk Management. I

am sitting nicely and now running 98 Second Edition as my main operating

system again since I downgraded to 512 sdram chip from 2 gigabytes and my

machine and myself are humming along nicely while all the DNS Pollution is

out there in the world. I await PCR's Response to this. <grins>

By the way, you guys see that Apple just released their patches for their

operating systems and so much for Apple being the safe and secure solution

that Walt Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal always likes to proclaim in his

technology column.

DNS poisoning is insidious & horrible, but I too see no evidence of it

yet in my machine. Unfortunately, I'm not exactly sure what it would

look like if I had it, though. I do hope the mishmash of expert rules I

have downloaded into my Kerio Personal Firewall has it covered.

 

From what I can make of that MS article, DNS poisoning has to do with

"translating host names to IP addresses (and vice versa)". So, it's a

matter of getting to the right site when an URL is clicked. If you get

to the wrong one, mischief can occur. But I'm not sure where the

poisoning would occur. Is it in one's machine or at a name server site?

What is the evidence of a poisoning?

PCR, if you go into the Internet Explorer options and check the display a

notification about every script error box and then run Internet Explorer you

will get an idea of DNS Pollution. I noticied at work problems popping up

with scirpt errors recently and contacted corporate and the two seem to be

related but I am sure it is much more complicated than that but this can give

you an idicator of a problem at least to start with in my opinion.

Alright. Thanks for the partial explanation. I'll continue to keep an

You are most welcome. BTW, which service provider do you. PCR use and how do

you connect to the 'Net -- eg. cable, dsl, <broadband> or dial-up

<narrowband>. I am sure I asked you in the past but Gary S. Terhune has

correctly stated in the past that my memory is poor and that is indeed the

case because I am learning disabled which was diagnosed at age 6.

 

I will always have to deal with that for what it is worth but at least it

makes me a special and unique individual. Now, do I have a good perspective

of all my ailments or am I just truly fully crazy. <grinning madly -watch

out- LOL -- sorry Gary -- I cannot resist -- I hope the fires are better now

in California for Gary's sake>

 

By the way, I connect with Comcast Cable which according to the us-cert.gov

site was one of the first to protect against DNS Pollution.

....that DNS pollution might be something for an ISP to solve (not the

user). I'm glad your Comcast has solved it for you. I'm sure NetZero

must be on it too. Anyhow, I've detected no symptoms.

 

You seem to be well enough to me, memory & all. I worry more that

Terhune will perish in an earthquake than in a fire. And if only his

governor would sit still, there'd be fewer of those too!

You are correct, it certainly falls on the ISP side but the user must bug

the ISP for fixes as well as being ever more careful while surfing the web

and practice safe hex methods, of course. These few web sites may be of

interest to you or others.

The nice thing PCR about the 98 general newsgroup and especially posting

within older posts like this is nobody really cares or is interested and it

is nice to be somewhat subtle so you don't have to panic your average

computer users. It reminds me of Spiderman "With great power comes great

responsibility" not that I have any great power mind you and I just consider

it a knack for computers. BTW, I will be starting a newer lower dose of

thyroid medicine today because sure enough the old dose was too high again

and made me angry, irritated and hyper. I appreciate you and so many others

for caring for me and bearing me up and through these difficult times. You

guys especially you PCR and Robear are truly awesome and brilliant

individuals. (now I know I will probably get some post saying what about me

and yes you helped also but these 2 individuals are on the top of my head

right now of course. My head must be in the clouds and in dreamland again.

:-) Thanks but what goes around comes around and as Gary S. Terhune made

you batty, I made Gary Batty and so 98 general continues as one big family,

imo. I am just glad I made it back and survived alpha, beta and gamma

radiation from XP and Vista. My Toshiba Vista has been sent back to be

repaired and hopefully purified from the radiation. The biometrics were

faulty as well as other issues and too many issues with Vista even though I

did indeed have a hand in beta testing it --- thanks to my friend Jeff who

was a system engineer and he has now gone on to the ministry. :-o

 

<shock and surprise --- sas -- lol -- getting the trick I guess -- grin <g>

| big family, imo. I am just glad I made it back and survived alpha,

| beta and gamma radiation from XP and Vista. My Toshiba Vista has

| radiation. The biometrics were faulty as well as other issues and

| too many issues with Vista even though I did indeed have a hand in

| beta testing it --- thanks to my friend Jeff who was a system

| engineer and he has now gone on to the ministry. :-o

|

| <shock and surprise --- sas -- lol -- getting the trick I guess --

| grin <g> :-!

 

That's bad when the biometrics is faulty! Have that engineer say a dozen

Hail Mary's over that Vista machine! And don't turn it back on until the

radiation is halved! <g>.

Re: What is status of Silverlight on 98? Att: PCR

 

LOL, hopefully it will be down to minimal radiation status -- at least not

much above XP's radiation levels -- which are not too bad with using Classic

interface and a few tweaks -- grinning --- I can feel the peace of mind with

the broken Vista Laptop out of the house and on its merry way to Toshiba to

be repaired
