What Kyo said plus...

Need to know:
- the Operating System you use (i.e. Window ME, Window XP, Redhat Linux 9, Mac OS X, etc).
- If you want emails/addressbook backed up then what email program you use (i.e. Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Mac OS X Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird).
- If you want your favorites backed up then what browser you use (i.e. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Galeon, Konqueror, Opera, etc).

Your best bet if your not sure what we're talking about or don't feel to good about doing this is to get a local geek you trust to do it for you. Don't give them the box especially if you don't trust them. Make em do the backup in front of you, so your data won't end up in a archive of backups to peruse at their leisure.
