Just a small point: ---- About including the .phoenix directory in the backup. I would suggest that either that not be done on small backup media, or that the cache be dumped out before each backup. Your bookmarks, home page settings and toolbar preferences are saved in .phoenix, in addition to the cache. I set it all up, then restore upon bootup, then don't backup unless I want new additions and changes to .phoenix made. If you use a hard drive partition for your backup, then you are ok, but the floppy might be limited somewhat in space. The default 50000 K cache size could get big over time. That can be cut to 2000 K. Backups to even 64MB memory stick would be ok, too. Only the floppy is the backup media to be concerned about, and that has a lot of space, but not nearly as much as the other backup choices. --- It's too bad, really, that flash cannot be included. I bet Windows XP has it somehow built into that OS, but perhaps the license cost $$$.
