By the way, if someone is looking to actually use it, I just want to warn that version 3.6 replaces the System Control Panel component with the one Windows ME, which has a different look and feel and misreports the OS version. Version 3.5 doesn't do that and has worked with every flash drive I've tried, so I'd recommend that version.

Windows 98 SE doesn't have it out of the box either. While it came well after Windows XP had taken over, in 2005 Maximus Decim released his USB drivers, which cobbles together USB mass storage drivers from newer versions of Windows, with modifications to get them working on Windows 98 with just an installer.

I misread that as "clutching their penises". I was like, "Alright, don't make me like them right as they're dying."

Interesting. They're made by Hershey's in the US, but Nestle everywhere else in the world. I did not know that until now.
