I'm running an IBM T23 with Win2K Pro Sp4. My wireless
setup consists of an Atheros MiniPCI card and Linksys 7dbi
antennas mounted to the back of the screen.

I also have a Zonet cardbus phone modem installed. I have
signed up for both a Netzero and a Juno free internet account.

What I'm worried about is that running the downloaded
software to install these services might wreak havoc on my
wireless settings. I've heard many say that the #2 internet
virus is AOL (Windows itself being #1 - lol) so I would NEVER
use an AOL installation disc.

I've used Netzero and Juno on another PC with no issues
but like I said, I'm worried - I used WiFi 99.999% of the time
but I would like the flexibility of being able to use a telephone
line for internet access if I need it......

Should I back up my registry before running these programs?

What do you guys think?
