I am planning on starting a new PC build and will be re-installing XP Home
from scratch - it was starting to get a bit clogged and slow.
I am fairly sure how to backup all the things I need, but I was not sure
what to do about my kid's MSN accounts.

What do I need to backup so that I can restore everthing once I have
installed the latest MSN Messenger on the new machine.

Thanks.

I would install everything from scratch. I would hope that you already
have your most important file folders on a several CDs. Often it is the
case that you find out how many useless and/or un-needed programs you
have had clogging up the works. This also gives you the chance to verify
any passwords and/or usernames that you use and need to write down for
safe keeping as a PC is NOT the place to safe keep important
information.
