Because Microsoft ended its life cycle and there are no more updates for
vulnerabilities.  I would only use an old version of Windows like that if
it were on a machine that would never be on the Internet and never be
interfacing with another machine.  Otherwise, you are asking for trouble.

I have an old laptop with W98 installed just so I can play old games.  It
has no notion of the Internet or even my local network.
