I say bah. Common sense will keep one safe on 98 as well as any other OS. A 98 user that is reading this forum or any security mailing list is likely to be quite secure, moreso than say, Gramma with her brand new Dell running XP, who doesn't read any security bulletins and doesn't understand windows update.
Common sense doesn't fix bugs. No more updates to 98 are getting posted, so if you are still using 98, I'd say Grandma running XP is better off.
