Address Book and Favorites!
If you're like most people, the listings in your e-mail
address book and your Favorites took some time to
gather. Losing all of those e-mail addresses or Favorite
web sites would be a shame.
That's why it's important to make a backup just in case
something happens to your PC. You can also use the
backup to transfer these files from one computer to
another computer.
--> Outlook Express: Just open Outlook Express and
click on Addresses. Then click Help and About Address
Book. You'll find the path to the address file in the "File:"
box. Follow that path in Windows Explorer. These files
typically use your user name and a .wab extension.
For instance, Joe Smith's might be joesmith.wab.
--> Eudora: Go to the main Eudora folder on your hard drive
and look for nndbase.txt and nndbase.toc. These files are
your default address book.
Save your address book files along with your other
personal data when you do a backup. You might be able
save this file to a floppy disk if the file is small enough.
--> Internet Explorer Favorites: Click the Start button and
then, Find (Search in Windows XP). Put the word "favorites"
in the search box and be sure that you are searching on
the main drive (usually C:). When you find the folder, simply
copy it to a safe place.
