Although I haven't found any evidence of intrusion, I've been urged
off-list to reinstall and since I'm about 4 hours early to rise this
morning I think I better.

Can we go over a good plan for the transition?  My main concerns are
backing up the right files and a good remote installation procedure as
it's been years since I did that.  Thanks.
