I know i will regret saying this but point no.1 saying backup everything is
plain madness, all i backup is /home and /etc/ and my latest Debian kernel
package and a list of the debian packages i have installed. To be honest I
think that is also a little over the top. 

Thing is also with backups you have to be careful if you backup everything as
of course if you are hacked and have to restore you may end up just
reinstalling the trojans.

/me makes a backup now just in case....
