Regarding Windows 98, we have no idea, it is not a platform we test on for blog articles as Microsoft ended support back in July of 2006.

Why is it a necessary condition that Microsoft continue support of win-98 as a proviso for testing exploits?

Are you aware that all IE6 rollup patches and fixes that microsoft has released for win-2k are functional on win-98? Even if Microsoft officially says they no longer support win-98, most of the patches that Microsoft releases for win-2K function just fine on win-98.

There is a continuous debate among those that still run win-98 (and there are many) regarding the functionality and vulnerability of win-98 to current malware and exploits. It would be nice if someone actually could test these exploits against win-98 and settle these arguments.

Fascinating stuff! The Romans would be amazed at how efficient their Praetorians are 2000 years past! :-)

The code above cuts out portions and translates some of the Base64 encoding for demonstration, its not provided to be operational.

For testing you're much better going with the Metasploit module for which a link is provided above and where you can control the payload.

Does this exploit function properly on a win-98 system with IE6-SP1?

I've taken the example code on this page and saved it to an .htm file and tried to have FireFox and IE6 open it. Firefox does nothing, and IE6 complains that it can't open some file. Is this what the code is supposed to do?
