Greetings,
  If you have a BIOS update from your computer vendor installed, I'd say
you're safe. MS has recently released a Y2K WIN95 fix at
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q182/9/67.asp
In order to see this you'll have to register and accept "cookies" or go to
http://winpatch.ml.org/ and download from there (no registration necessary.
Click on "Windows 95" link. It's the first patch of many listed, unless MS
posts another one before you read this!)

Cheers,
