Hi All,

Without going into why, I have a customer that is unable to
accomplish local backups.

Do any of you have a recommendation for a secure and inexpensive
on line backup? One that is friendly with W7 Home Premium?

Many thanks,
-T

I know exactly which of my clients you're describing.

I've set up a few folks with SOS Online Backup. Easy to install and
configure, can be customized as far as what is included, cheaper than
most others, etc. Backed up files are encrypted for transfer and
storage. Multiple revisions are stored. Old versions of files can be
retrieved. The user agent can send an email after a backup event to
let you know, or let someone know, whether it was successful. Most of
my clients don't want the email, so I send it to myself in order to
monitor their success.

Here's the Google search because some reviews, pcmag and cnet, are
also included in the search results.

Cheapest is free by using as many sites as necessary within their free
starter settings.

You can write simple batch files to ZIP and password protect folders and
then run on demand or via Task Scheduler

Always do incremental backups of your data or you'll end up like the
A-Holes at DSL Reports. Justin says i made a boo-boo. Yeah boo-who.

Come get your ticket to CyberFROG city

Nay, Art thou decideth playeth ye simpleton games. *Some* of us know
proper manners

Very few. I used to take calls from *rank* noobs but got fired the first
day on the job for potty mouth,

Bur-ring, i'll get this one: WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM JERK!!? We're here to
help you dickweed, ok, ok give the power cord the jiggily piggily
wiggily all the while pushing the power button repeatedly now take
everything out of your computer except the power supply and *one* stick
of ram. Ok get the next sucker on the phone.

There's the employer and the employee and the FROGGER and the FROGEE,
which one are you?

Hamster isn't a newsreader it's a mistake!

El-Gonzo Jackson FROGS both me and Chuckcar (I just got EL-FROG-OED!!)

I hate them both, With useless bogus bullshit you need at least *three*
fulltime jobs to afford either one of them

I'm a fulltime text *only* man on usenet now. The rest of the world
downloads the binary files not me i can't afford thousands of dollars a
month

VBB = Volume based billing. How many bytes can we shove down your throat
and out your arse sir?

UBB = User based bullFROGGING

Always do incremental backups of your data or you'll end up like the
A-Holes at DSL Reports. Justin says i made a boo-boo. Yeah boo-who.

Updates are for idiots. As long as the thing works there's no reason to
turn
schizophrenic and develop a lifelong complex over such a silly issue.
