Failing that you could scrape it, bit naughty though.
To be honest, legality aside, I'd have no idea where to start with web scraping so that's out of the question.
I had guessed it would be nigh on impossible for a novice like me, thought I'd ask the question anyway! Cheers though, I'll just have to grind it out manually.
Someone posted a link to a driver backup program earlier in the thread, I would suggest doing that so you don't have to find all your drivers again once your done, however updating the would be no bad thing.

Other things to do -
Run msconfig and stop everything apart from your AV starting a boot.
Will that actually increase a Netbook's web browsing speed? I ask because i was once told, and i cant recall where, that once you pass 1GB of RAM the speed of web browsing will only change a negligable amount.
I've just brought my daughter a cheapish Netbook from America and it's rather slow for web browsing despite excellent broadband signal in our property. It only has 1GB of RAM, is it actually worth increasing, then?

Yes, you've got the operation system, the graphics and any software running to come off that RAM, an extra boost to 2GB is the best upgrade, once you are over that 2GB you wouldn't see much of a boost to browsing speed.
