Actually, Go Back is s separate application you can buy. It is basically the same idea as the system restore points on XP but more fully featured. You can set restore points and be able to restore deleted files, undo system changes, etc. It works quite well. The product wad taken over by another company and the last I heard, they were working on a version for other Windows versions. Of course, that was back when NT was the newest version of Windows so I don't know if it's still around. Theres also a freeware utility you can get called ERUNT, probably find it on Google. It will quickly save a copy of your current registry and do restores from these backups--helpful if an install goes bad. It won't delete installed files but the registry is usually the key to getting most things undone, assuming no system files were replaced. I don't know if it works on 98 or not.
