Hi KAM! We are just *full* of ideas but the main thread right now is saving Kristyne's ranch if at all possible. You might try [NF] rather than [OT] because a fair number of the people who are most likely to have your answers wouldn't soil themselves to read what is posted on [OT]. My own imperfect backup strategy is to periodically burn a copy of my documents folder, but that is admittedly not for everybody. -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
