How do you BACKUP AOL

Hi Everyone,

I may have to reinstall windows xp on a machine, looks like it may need a clean re-install.

I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy way to back up AOL.?!

Cheers

Copying the idb and organize subfolders is usually enough.

Why do you need to clean reinstall? Have you tried a system restore and/or a repair reinstall over the top?

Yeah restore has lost all the restore points..Pretty sure i have a virus on it.!

I have done the re-install over the top, but it still leaves alot of **** on the hard drive..so I thought if i did a clean install and get rid of it all.

Just want to make sure i get as much of my settings as possible backed up first.!!
