Paul, in lieu of a complete reformat & reinstall, maybe try uninstalling 
Win98 networking and reinstalling. It's been a while since I've messed 
around with Win98 so maybe I'm somewhat rusty but I remember doing that 
in the past to clear up some networking problems.  Why did the virus 
protection program delete those files?  The networking reinstall should 
reinstall them if they are required.  I think you can get to the 
Add/Delete Windows Components from the Control Panel.
