Description:
The previous Alpha release did (and actually worked quite nicely as far as I could tell).  Is 1.0.3a still available?  Was Win98SE overlooked in packaging?  Or is it no longer supported???

How to repeat:
On a Win98SE PC, download the 1.0.4a zip file, unzip, install.  Error message: "The operating system is not adequate for running..."

Suggested fix:
Research, redocument or repackage.

Seems to run fine when installed from "without installer" zip file.

All of the new GUI tools won't run under Win9X/ME platforms.

Please update your system to NT/2K/XP/2003 if you want to use any of MySQL AB's GUI tools.

Thanks for the update.  Actually QueryBrowser seems to run fine based on the little amount of time I've logged with it.  Administrator would crash immediately and its uninstall would wreck QueryBrowser, probably by taking common files with it.

My only suggestion then would be to explicitly state which Win versions are supported as I didn't think it was clearly stated.  Thanks!
