thanks, Wendy - perhaps I am being over-cautious. What I have heard of, but
fortunately not
experienced myself, was a program which produced a registry backup but needed
considerable expertise to restore it if disaster struck. From memory I think
that it involved
booting into safe mode or even working from the Command Prompt!
Having a registry backup is fine but one needs to be sure that in the unlikely
event of it being
needed the process is not too difficult.
