First off - you want Service Pack 2 - not 1a. 1a is WAY old - not
that service pack 2 is much better at this point in age - but the
security enhancements alone make it better.

As for the second part of your question, you are connected to the
Internet or you have a new way of posting I do not understand.

It does not matter - they have the connection. Beg, buy, borrow or steal -
here they are on the Internet - and if they can post to the newsgroup - they
can likely do one of the two solutions given.
