Windows Update Question

[Tangerine]

Hi, I have a question about Windows update for Win98. I just reformatted and reinstalled Win98, and went to Microsoft and did all the critical updates, but I wonder about some of these others that aren't critical, whether I need them. Any help? Thanks

The updates are:

Root Certificates Update

Adding additional root certificates to your computer enables a greater range of secure Web browsing, secure e-mail, and secure code delivery applications to work seamlessly. This update includes root certificates from Verisign, Thawte, and Post.Trust in Ireland. Read more...

Click the "read more" and decide if its somethng you want I'd suggest the certificates one, especially if you do any stuff online that uses secure certificates... I think typically like buying online, banking, some apps you can DL... isnt a big download in anycase, and I'm fairly sure there was some stink about some dodgy certificates or something that lead to MS doing an update.

VML, well, does what it says so entirely up to you. again not a big DL so why not
