Hi

Just try booting in safe mode and see whether the problem still persists..if not then remove the group mail software and reboot the machine normally..It should solve the problem...and the reinstall the software

If W98 is not starting at all, get into Safe Mode. Run "msconfig", click the Startup tab and clear the tick marks for any virus software and other utilities (eg Norton) that run at start up.
Reboot normally.

Go to "Start", then "Run" type "msconfig", press the ok button, go to the Start Tab/Folder, and increase the size of your view window; it is located in the top right hand corner. Scroll down until you find the Group Mail, if there is a check in the box next to the new software that you installed, take the check mark out and reboot your machine. This should eliminate it from booting with Win 98se. In the future always run a virus Program (eg Norton) before you install any download. Un wanted Virus comes in many shapes and forms but they can place you in a worse predicament than you are ready in.
