Before you get started with this project, we recommend that you have the following:
* A backup utility
* An autorun detection app (such as Autoruns)

Backup utilities
Don't even think about mucking around with your hard drive without backing up all your files. These easy-to-use apps will preserve the data on your PC before disaster strikes.
EDITORS' FIRST CHOICE:
Norton GoBack 4
While the System Restore utility built into Windows XP is fine, Norton GoBack 4 delivers much more control and flexibility, making your PC almost glitch-proof.
