network stack - choose windows logon instead of client for microsoft networks should do the trick - as long as you haven't entered a password in the logon screen - otherwise you will have to delete the .pwl files

Thats normal - dont wory about it...

Part of the reason that windows is so insecure is that 98 thinks you are connecting to a LAN and not the internet so it wants to set up netbios for file and printer sharing.

Have you now just got the three entries in the network box ?
