MBarth,

Read more about it here:

Windows 98/98SE Security Patch: Unchecked Buffer in UPnP can lead to system compromise


Notice the Release date:
Release Date - 19 Dec 2001

It's a critical update, I would definately download and install it.

To check, go to Start>Run, and type qfecheck. look for UPD314941
