In summary, the conversation is about the difficulties the speaker is having with installing spybot on their laptop with Windows 98. They have tried downloading the software and received an error message, and are now considering reformatting their computer. They also mention having another computer with Windows ME, but are unable to access the internet with it. The speaker does not have the restore disk for their laptop.

I have 2 computers:
comp 1: desktop pc with win ME
comp 2: dell laptop with win 98

I can't access the internet with comp 1 so am using comp 2 to get online for help

I have spybot on comp 1 but not on comp 2. when I tried to download spybot on comp 2 it wouldn't install

I have reformatted comp 1 before, guess I have to again now but that won't help me with the spybot installation prob on comp 2
