You open your address book and click the "File" menu / "Export" command. Export your addresses to a save location (like My Documents, for example). Then put the My Documents folder on the CD.
You can save your email messages by saving the *.pst file. You will need to locate the save location of this file by looking in your Outlook / Tools / Options / Other tab. In my system, the file is in:
C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook *see note
and filename is outlook.pst. To restore the file, paste the file into the save location as indicated in your laptop"s Outlook / Tools / Options / Other tab.
If you're going to use the same email setup on the laptop, you can also export your email setting. To do that, in Outlook, open "Tools", then "Accounts". Highlight the account settings you wish to export and click the "Export" button. Again, save the resulting *.iaf file to a save location.
When setting up you laptop's email, use the "Import" button and import the settings.
You can also export your "Favorites" and "Cookies" using the File/Export command in Internet Explorer.
I hope this helps!

*Note: Different Windows versions and different Outlook versions will store these files in different locations, so the location of your *.pst file may differ.
