The Importance of Backing Up Your Files! (AND How To Do It!)
As a Newsletter Publisher, I receive many questions. One of the
questions I receive the most, though, is in regards to backing
up your files, specifically, your web site.
Defending ChristChristian values are under attack daily. In fact, Christians have their rights violated regularly and worse still they allow it to ..... Backing up your web pages should be no problem. The average web
page is 30-40 KB, although I did see one that was actually 700
KB. That is a LARGE page. Too large! However, those will fit on
a floppy without any problem.
The problem is your .exe, .pdf, etc. files. These can be and
often are larger than what a standard floppy can hold.
There are a number of software programs that can help.
1. Power Archiver:
With a modern easy-to-use interface, PowerArchiver provides
support for most compressed and encoded files, as well as access
to many powerful features and tools. This downloads in a
Changing The ToneChanging the Tone By Scott C. Smith 'The spirit of cooperation I have seen in this ..... self-extractable .exe format and is shareware. It costs $19.95
to get the registered version. Check it out here:

2. WinZip:
WinZip brings the convenience of Windows to the use of Zip files
and other compression formats. The optional wizard interface
makes zipping and unzipping easier than ever. This downloads in
a self-extractable .exe format and is free. A single-User
License costs $29.00. Get it here: http://www.winzip.com opthema/
In some cases, you will have a problem installing Ver. 8.1. If
you receive an error message similar to the following: "WinZip
Self-Extractor unable to create a temporary folder to extract
to. etc.", do not give up hope. There appears to be a problem
with the newer version. You can download the older version from
me. Just click here:

The best of the best! Using WinRAR puts you ahead of the crowd
when it comes to compression by consistently making smaller
archives than the competition. You can download an evaluation
copy or purchase a registered version for $29
http://www.rarsoft.com/
I have only listed three of the best here. To check out many
other possibilities go to: http://www.keyscreen.com/ Then click
on the File Manager link. You will find many other shareware and
freeware applications here as well.
In some instances, none of the above programs will be able to
help you. Why? Because some HTML Editors do not create separate
files. The HTML code and all files associated with the page are
included in one large file. Even after compressing into an
archive file (.zip, .rar, .arc, etc.), the file is still too
large.
This may help in these cases.
File Splitter:
This splits files into pieces so they can be moved onto floppy
disks between systems. The program creates a batch file that is
easily reassembled on another PC or back on yours. You do not
need to have it installed on both machines to transfer files.
You can download File Splitter FREE here:

It is important that you get into the habit of backing up your
files and websites on a regular basis. Just having things stored
on your hard drive is not enough. A computer crash or hard drive
failure can wipe out everything. I know this from experience. My
hard drive failed and could not be restored. Fortunately I had
everything backup on CD's or I would have lost years of
important files.
Please, don't make this simple mistake!
Backup everything at least once a week. Daily is better. At the
absolute minimum, backup your data files daily.
If all else fails - buy a CD-RW!
