Finaly got everything sorted ready for switching accross to my PC, whilst doing so, it made me realise just how much you rely on stored details.
I was surprised to find I have hosting in 8 different places, I have 5 affiliate accounts set up, are a member of at least 8 forums, have 2 google accounts, an Istockphoto account plus numerous other sites that I have to log in to.
Many of these I have set up to automatically sign me in, and this made me realise that if I had just switched this system off and started my new one I would never have got in to some places or even be able to FTP to some sites.
With this in mind, I went to all places that require me to sign in and updated all my details (some were still with email addresses that no longer exist) and made a note of all URL’s, log in names, and passwords.
I also updated all my FTP and email details and made a note of these too. As I mentioned in a previous post, I am so glad this PC started playing up rather than just dying on me.
