    isn't msvcrt a set of c libraries that visual studio 6 uses? I know you have to turn it off if you plan on using libc...

    Also:

    This can be a 98, 98 SE, or Me problem when the version of msvcrt.dll on computer needs to be updated.
    The Microsoft Libraries Update resolves an issue that can cause some third-party software to behave unexpectedly after the installation of Microsoft Works Suite 99, Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 99 (US only), Microsoft Encarta Virtual Globe 99, Microsoft Graphics Studio Greetings 99, or other third-party software. Impacted programs include America Online (AOL) version 4.0 and HyperTerminal.

    Firefox works on my Mother's 98 box with the update present.

    You are correct. :)

    msvcrt = MS Visual C RunTime

    If the other fix didn't work you can download the file here.
