I always make backups for my sites in a WordPad text file. It doesn't change the formatting and dreamweaver and some of those other things I tried to use just confused me. I am constantly blowing away pages or even whole message boards so I have found that if I put it in a WordPad file, I can very quickly restore everything in just minutes instead of the days/weeks that it used to take me. I also automatically email myself a copy (to a web based email) of the code just to be on the safe side. I tend to not be very good at burning backup cds.
