The logins on their own don't but you can also enable user profiles in
Win98

I have a Win98 desktop that picks its profile settings up from my Win2k
workstation.... I map a drive when the user logs on, and point the desktop
/
My Documents / Favourites to folders on the other PC. (I cannot recall how
this is done right now, I think I used TweakUI and logged on as each user
and repointed their settings)

Depends what webserver you are using, if you are using Homeseer's
webserver,
and running AntiVirus and a Firewall you should be ok...

Remember that IIS is the most hacked, virus attacked web server going :-)
