State of the computer

deathpixieWell, now it's stopped thundering I've deemed it safe to turn my computer back on and see the state of my files.
And of course, there's good news and bad news.
Good news: my documents folder is safe, all stories recovered. And now backed up onto CD. Most other things seem to be there.
Bad news: all my Netscape settings have been lost, requiring me to wrangle a fix. I'd say it's a new version of Netscape, but for some reason it was remembering my previous account with Hotkey in Wodonga. I've managed to set it back up, but I've lost anything that was saved, including email for the past several months (I knew I should have emptied that backlog!), my address book, and my bookmarks. All of which is rather sucky and annoying.
The upshot: anyone who feels I should have their email address, email me at rossi(at)optusnet(dot)com(dot)au Anyone who emailed me anything in the past three or four months and hadn't received a reply and feels it was important, mail me again.
Still, it could have been a whole lot worse.
