For win98, "net start" (or much of anything in autoexec.bat, for that matter) isn't needed, since all aspects of network startup are handled while Windows is starting. As far as the fact that the line appears even if it's preceeded by a "rem", it's simply being echoed, and not processed further. I actually found a technical article from Microsoft about the changes to autoexec.bat and other startup files when a system is upgraded from an earlier Windows version, such as Windows for Workgroups.
