Some web pages freeze: Microsoft (Not responding)

[*Doug]

Some pages that I try to pull up, they freeze, and then I can't go where I want to go. Then it won't shut down..... Microsoft Internet Explorer (Not responding) shows up, So I Use Alt, Enter, Delete to shut down. My oldest son downloaded the old computer "W'98" into the new one that Im using right now. Why is this happening? Did he screw it up?
