SEOUL, Sept. 13 (Yonhap) -- Software giant Microsoft Corp. has 
rejected South Korea's intelligence agency's request that a planned 
halt to security patch releases for a version of the Windows operating 
system be postponed, according to the spy agency's cyber security team 
Tuesday.

The National Cyber Security Center, affiliated with the National 
Intelligence Service, said its demands for Microsoft to extend the 
release of Windows 98 security patches were met with refusals.
