WPA & WIN98, is it not possible?

I've read a thread on this very group that says in the effect that I
have to have another program to get WPA to work on WIN98. I have a
Linksys WPC11 wireless adaptor and I just upgraded the firmware of the
router. Is it not possible to get WIN98 to work with WPA? I don't
know exactly how insecure WEP is but I suppose having WEP is better
than nothing? So if WIN98 can't take advantage of WPA, should I just
go back to WEP?

Thanks

It is possible but you need a WPA supplicant like one from Funk or
Meetinghouse (and they aren't free).
