Using IE6, Earthlink as ISP & WinXP Home. I seem to have several Favorites
folders in my directory with various Modified Dates. I want to back up my
system and am not sure which Favorites folder to backup. How can I tell
which is the "real" Favorites and is it safe to delete all the other
Favorite folders? I want to keep things as simple as possible.
Thanks in advance, Fran
