On my Windows 98 system, I created a text file named c:\links.htm similar to the
following:

-----------------------------------------------------------

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN">

<BODY BGCOLOR="#DDDDDD">

(I hope that came out OK: everything should be in plain text.) I have my
password in place of the xxxx in the CCC Forum line. This file is my homepage,
so it comes up fast when the browser starts, and I can just click on the page
that I want to open. If I want to re-install Windows 98 (which I do often!), I
save the file to a floppy disk so I don't need to re-enter all of my favortie
sites.
