What about including Kernelex and the generic usb mass storage drivers for Windows 98? I find that VERY useful... also, there are some generic Bt878 drivers (outdated since they probably won't work in Vista, and analog TV is dying).

Some webs...

Kernelex - http://www.msfn.org/board/KernelEx-v032a-rele … sed-t71476.html
Windows 98 USB mass storage driver - http://www.technical-assistance.co.uk/kb/win9 … age-drivers.php
WDM Bt878 driver - http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/

Also, you may want to include in your list Old Version ( http://www.oldversion.com/ ), where you can find old versions of programs (example: Flashget 1.73 is a great download manager... Flashget 1.80 or later is a piece of shit).

I have traveled across the universe and through the years to find Her.
Sometimes going all the way is just a start...

I'm selling some stuff!
