I use incremental update software "Goodscync" and back up all my files a couple times a day.  Also periodically clone my hard drive using "True Image".  Even without malicious email, your PC can die (usually the hard drive) and it's a real pain.  Goodsync is pretty fast.

I wanted to share with you all that a couple of months almost before the
Vegas Rally, I got a malware/virus in my computer, I was opening several
posted messages, thinking they were safe.
It was a huge undertaking to clean my computer out.  I don't know if it was
related to any messages I opened from Pantera related websites or something
totally different, but thought I would share that.
It took my tech guy 3 days and 3 nights using several software to clean it
completely.
FYI

This is "ransomware".  It is becoming a big problem.  Unlike viruses, they
cannot be removed.

Do not open any .zip or .exe files even if you think they came from someone
you know.
