Backing up the registry

[Guest]

I am trying to backup my registry in Win XP for home edition, and can't locate the backup utility in my system tools in accessories. Does anybody here know where I can find the backup utility? The reason I need to back up my registry, is because I need to make one change to it in order to fix a problem with my installation of Norton Internet Security 2004. According to Symantec's help info, deleting a registry key for the Norton Internet Security uninstaller will address my particular error, but they strongly recommend backing up the registry before making any changes to it.. Please help if you can. Thank you.
