Hi all I was wondering if there is a place to download updates for windows
95?Have a friend with 95 on her laptop and had to reformat it due to TONS of
disk errors.She is not on the internet so I figure I'd see if i could
download updates for her and burn'um to disk so she can install herself.Any
and all help will be greatly appreciated!!!!

Absolutely! You can use the lists I'll post below as an update guide
and download them individually or get them from on-disk for like $4.00

Windows 95 "On-Pack" which contains Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 (This is
the full version with Outlook Express, 128 bit encryption, and Java),
DirectX 8.0a, Windows media player 7.1, Windows 95 Y2K Update, Windows
95 OEM SR2 Update, OpenOffice.org 1.0.3.1 (Legacy Build for Win 95),
Trillian 0.74, ExtractNow.
(Direct Link = http://on-disk.com/product_info.php/products_id/33 )

and

Windows 95 "Opti-Pack" which contains Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2,
DirectX 8.0a, Windows media player 7.1, Sygate Personal Firewall 5.5,
Bayden PopupPopper 1.1, Avast! AntiVirus Home Edition, Avast! Virus
Cleaner, WinPatrol 7.0.0.3, Ad-aware 6.0, msconfig.exe, PowerToys,
Windows 95 Dial-Up Networking 1.4 Upgrade, Windows Library Update,
Windows 95 Y2K Update, Windows 95 OEM SR2 Update, Windows 95 Update
for AMD-K6®-2/350, Windows 95 Backup Update.
(Direct Link = http://on-disk.com/product_info.php/products_id/45 )

I ended up getting the opti-pack one because it helped me update 95
and add a firewall, virus, and spyware protection without looking all
over for individual downloads. I also got a $2 discount because my
ISP is webpath.us, which isn't a big deal because it was only $4 to
begin with.
