This site started as adult webmasters swapin' info and when someone has a legitimate webmaster (computer) related question they either get bullshit like what twistyneck posted or dumb-ass nooB I-have-no-idea-what-I'm-doing remarks like what sumphatpimp posted. So asuna comes in with a legit question cause he isn't sure and all he gets is bullshit. Quote:

You should back up the following folders:
Favorites My Documents Move them to another disk or to a network computer, burn to CD/DVD or leave them in another folder (besides the windows directory or drive root) if you must. It will overwrite MSIE's favorites, which isnt a problem if they dont use IE. I cannot remember if it overwrites outlook's mail stores or not, but e-mail is my livlihood so I back it up anyway. Back that up for sure if you need anything in there, otherwise dont. But with Win98 it is better to format anyway.
