Sure, that could happen but seeing how there are only two known exploits
published in 2006 for Windows 98 I think it is safe to say that the risk
is fairly low. Why should Microsoft spend millions of dollars to operate
a team to update Windows 98 when there was such a low volume of exploits
for Windows 98 with very little details regarding the specifics of the
exploit and no known code has been released to exploit these
vulnerabilities?

I'd like to see someone discus the plan of execution of exactly how a
hacker would go about compromising 70 million Windows 98 computers.
Put the exploit on your myspace account ;-)
