What is the current feeling on the best free backup program for IE6 OE that
will TOTALLY back up message folders, address book, newsgroups and newsgroup
accounts for moving to a to a newly reformatted drive. Single identity only
used.

XP-sp2

Thanks
Mel

No program needed, just instructions. Cloning, (#3), is probably your best
bet.

If you are transferring to another PC, and have access to a Windows XP setup
CD, or if both computers are running Windows XP, see:

For daily backup, I use this.

This freeware tool backs up everything in OE in seconds. Disregard what is
written in red. That is referring to a different program.
