How to restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from backup without updating.

How do I restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from a backup without updating.  I need to restore my ical entries and they are wiped out on both my main and backup drive and mobile me.  My phone is also wiped out and I think my back up may be my only hope of getting that info back.  Every time I try to restore using itunes 5.1 itunes only shows me th option to restore and update.  Not just restore.  Will the option to just restore from the last backup present itself in the process or do I need to shift click or something?  Thanks for your help...

Can't I fake it out so it just leaves my ios as it is but restores files and settings?  ios 4 doesn't really work well with the 3G models.  They get slow and buggy.  Isn't there some way to just put the ipsw file somewhere and point to it?  Or, is there a way to just rip the ical info outof the backup files.  That would work to.
