...continued I also have a CDRW that I use to store stuff I am still working on graphic wise that I don't want to lose early versions of in case I mess up and another CDRW just for my web site backup, another for all my WEB and other app saves like bookmarks/favorite urls, old mail, ftp ini files, excel and word documents etc. My Poser folder is 3.02GB in size, no way to back that sucker up to a CDR so I am going to have to dig out all my CDRs and copy the files back if something goes bonkers one day. A p.i.t.a. but unless I find a cheap huge backup media that runs on USB, it'll be all I can do. I have plenty of zipped files on my CDRs and CDRWs, whole program folders, even the entire Windows folder on one CDR in case I lose a DLL some day. I've not had a problem reading or retrieving files from the zip files.
