_Most_ Win98 users can also simply rename the file
(%WINDIR%\system\msasn1.dll) without repercusions.

This is true unless you use 98 in a business and have the AD client... which
many of my colegues still have... sadly...

I just found out today that the patch will not be on Windows Update ever,
and you have to call in for it. It's free but you have to call in. I'm
deploying it at work since yesterday.
