If you are still running win98 you do need to look to upgrade. Not for speed but to protect you system.
98 is no longer supported so no bug up dates to stop you PC from being atacted.
For most system if they are older than 12months wipe the HDD and reload OS will speed things up a lot.

Can anyone advise me on the following?

I run Windows 98. Someone told me that if I moved the icons from the desktop (requiring two clicks to open) to the bar right at the bottom of the screen (requiring one click to open), it would speed up things. I am not sure if this is correct as it seems slower but this maybe just my perception. Expert advice anyone?
