Somehow, Sasser got through to me, and I coukn not get it out, no matter how I tried.
Finally fixed it by repartitioning C:\ and installing XP again. (C:\ is my partition for Windows only

I lost some important addresses, and I am still recovering them. I want to prevent that again

Is there any way to place the address book and contacts on my D:\ partition so If I have another hassle with a sasser-like worm, I will not have to lose address book & contacts

Looking through the threads, I see that PST files do not always restore completely accurately when they are imported into Outlook. What is the best practice to use to keep an off-partition or off-computer copy of addresses so they may be easilly restored at disaster time?
 
Your PST can reside wherever you want it to. Keep it on a separate partition
and make back up copies frequently.
