   Because Microsoft ended its life cycle and there are no more updates for   
   vulnerabilities.  I would only use an old version of Windows like that if   
   it were on a machine that would never be on the Internet and never be   
   interfacing with another machine.  Otherwise, you are asking for trouble.   
      
   I have an old laptop with W98 installed just so I can play old games.  It   
   has no notion of the Internet or even my local network.
