More info?)
If you are not having any problems or errors with that version, then you do not need
to update it. Your H-P programs have installed the versions they want in their own
folders, according to the info in your previous post (though I doubt anything uses
the copies in your folder named "MyDownloaded Files"). If you have MS Office, it
may install a newer version in the Windows\System folder, so if problems occur with
an Office app (if installed), a repair or reinstall of Office would take care of
that.
BTW, the MSKB article you were directed to applies to Win98 as well as ME (read the
entire title):
"A custom application that uses the C runtime (Msvcrt.dll) may unexpectedly quit on
a computer that is running Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 98, or Windows 95"
