BACKING UP

I am often amazed that many people do not back up their computers.  Especially that valuable email address book.  How many people keep email addresses written down in an address book? Not many.

You really ought to copy your address book occassionally to somewhere other than your computer.  On to a memory stick is best but there are plenty of places on the net where you can back up for free, or save files.  Dropbox; Google Docs are just two.

A popular (if that is not an oxymoron) virus is one that attacks your address book. I know of al least two freinds who have lost their very old and very large email address books by an attack from  a virus that simply emailed all their freinds with the virus attached and then destroyed the address book it has just used.

Think about it.  What would you do?
