If that is located in C:\Program       Files\Netscape, that is your Communicator profile. Look to find your       NS7 profile. First of all, open Profile Manager and see if there is       more then one profile listed. If so, see if your data is in one.              Most likely there will be only one. Navigate to your profile folder,       the location of which varies by OS:              http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder              The article is for Mozilla, but should help you find the Netscape profile.              This article should help in recovering data:              http://kb.mozillazine.org/Migrating_settings_to_a_new_profile              It is critical that a regular backup be done. I include my Netscape       Profiles in my nightly backup routine, I suggest everyone do the same.       There are many programs out there for this purpose. To backup the       profile manually:              http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup              Lee              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
