A client reviewed a site we're developing in Windows 98 and some things aren't lining up (in the layout) as they should. Even though it looks good in all browsers on Windows XP and Mac OSX.
Anywho, is there a website or software out there that can simulate what a website would look like in IE on Win98? I only have Win XP and Mac OSX operating systems available to me.

what browser are they using?

They did send me a screenshot and it's Internet Explorer
Problem is, I can try to fix it but there's now way for me to test and see if my fixes are successful.

This is exactly the reason why you a) Do contracts, and b) Define a scope in terms of technology support in said contract.

There comes a time when you have to ask yourself, and your client, is it really worth our time developing for (x) when there is so little use?

Amen kOna. Like most issues, put it to the 90/10% test. If you are focusing on the minority (much like in life... * blink*) of users, you are going to end up causing problems for the majority.
