I don't know if it is teaching Grandma/pa to suck eggs but someone on a Computer Mailing List advised me to keep a folder in My Docs with all the same program shortcuts in. It has proved so helpful. I wondered if Patsy may like to do this, have a folder called 'Colours' and keep her shortcuts to those programs she uses or a Word document with the links in.

Even better, I never delete things from my Downloads folder. When the folder gets too big, I just copy it to a Downloads DVD and start over. This has saved my bacon more than once! -R.

I keep all my downloads, too. Make sure that you include the download folder in your backups, otherwise you may as well have not bothered keeping the files WHEN your computer does the nasty.
