is there anyway i can protect my mails in outlook express ie. mails in my inbox, outbox,folders which i have created in windows 95/98.

if so how can i, does anyone know any S/W for it or any patches or service packs for it.

I think backing up your Outlook folder on a separate media (tape, CDR-W, hdd) would do it. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

For the latest patches/updates:

Windows Update
or
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.asp

And Office97 update - especially if you use Word97 as your email text editor - Use the Auto
Update on this page's menu bar
http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/Articles/sr2fact.htm

And Internet Explorer
http://www.microsoft.com/catalog/display.asp?site=808&subid=22&pg=1

Be careful though, some patches you may not need and not all updates are necessarily "a good thing". Read the associated Knowledge Base/other articles carefully to make sure you are downloading what you want - need.

Also, you can do a SysOpt search on a certain update (name, number) and see how other members fared with theirs.

And, see this thread:
