Recovery point or restore point?

About a month ago I created my first and only recovery point. Recently, I am having a problem with my AOL browser for one of my screen names which has all my emails. Help is useless in AOL, if your not a paying  member…I have it throught the courtesy of Time Warner. Now, I was wondering if someone can tell me the advantage or disadvantage of either using XP’s restore point whick goes back to the 20th of Dec, which is prior to my AOL problem or using the recovery point going back to Nov 25th? Obviously, the Dec one would have more recent info then the 25th one…Please correct me in my thinking, if I am wrong. Thanks

Having used XP's restore points successfully a number of times my first choice would be to use it. If it doesn't fix things up you could then use the recovery point. You can also "undo" the XP restore if your not happy with the result.
