Hi,

In the FAQ of bitcoin.org <http://bitcoin.org> the backing up of the
wallet had old instructions, right?  Should it just be to back up
wallat.dat instead of the entire folder???  See below.

"How do I backup my wallet?

Your data is stored in the directory ''%appdata%\\Bitcoin'', which is
typically:

Windows XP:
C:\\Documents and Settings\\username\\Application Data\\Bitcoin
Windows Vista:
C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\Roaming\\Bitcoin

It’s recommended that you stop Bitcoin before backing it up to make sure
the backup will be correct."
