    ps: one more question regarding WinMe system restore: would it be possible to delete all presvious restore points except the last one like in WinXP?

    From memory.

    Right click my computer> choose properties> performance > files> trouble shooting. Put a check mark on disable system restore > reboot

    Here's more: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...rc=sec_doc_nam

    Gotta type faster.

    You could disable it which would clear all and then re-enable it which would create a new restore point as soon as the system reboots.

    Other than that I have had it disabled so long I can't remember.

    In fact I use a utility called System Restore Remover Pro which also deletes the hidden _Restore folder.
