But if I do a SR I would lose things dled after the restore point, or if
I had to go back to factory conditions I would lose everything. What I
am wondering about is having re-installing everything with the least
amount of time and dare I say it?, work. What I'd like to do is save
some of my programs to disk and if I need it just pop the disk in and dl
from it. Am I clear as mud? LOL Or say a friend would call and say I
need Spybot (as an example only) could you dl it to disk and bring it
over, or say if I had two pc's and only wanted to dl it from the
internet once, but wanted it on both machines how would or could I save
it to disk?
I have created a folder I named Security I put AdAware, Spybot, and the
like on my C drive. I haven't dled anything else, no music, pictures,
games, etc. into it just protection/preventative programs for my pc. Is
this OK?
What I have also done is created on my desktop a folder called Setup
that holds all of the initial files to install the above mentioned
programs. Is this OK too?
Sorry for playing 1000 questions....

Take Care; Marty
