there are several commercial products that do an ok job. that being said, the more technology between the older and newer the more issues you may find. It helps to have both systems on the same version of software, say XP and XP and with the same service packs and all that too. Moving from Win98 to Vista could be a mind numbing experience.
Of course, do your backups of the source system, and then do another one just to be sure.
What applications are you moving? If you run MS Outlook it's very easy to pull the .PST file across, and create a new email profile and point to that .PST file and all of your stuff will be there. AGAIN, make sure you have the SAME versions of the software on both systems, so much easier and much better success rate!
