Why back up online?

Many of us, including me...keep the external hard drive right next to the desktop pc. Is that really the best way to back up your data? It's the way many of us are used to doing it. What if your house was in a fire?...that external hard drive would burn if your computer burned now wouldn't it? And if you had a break-in and someone stole your computer, wouldn't they take your external hard drive too? It's probably connected!
A solution I am offering you folks today is to use Mozy. It's a very simple software tool that uploads your information to their servers right over your internet connection. No hardware necessary!
They offer 2 gigs for free; if you need more space they offer yearly packages for under $60 a year.
My Mozy uploads slick and I can't even tell it's doing a backup to the internet.

How do I do it?

Click on this link...

www.mozy.com
Go to the bottom of the page and click on "2gig backup free"

Register for an account. Next page, complete the survey. You will receive an email with instructions on how to install the software.
Once it's installed, you will be able to easily select the files you want to back up; Mozy will help and do a search for you too to find the most common files.
Just a reminder, please reset the scheduled back up time to another time other than the standard "12:00 am" as so many people are doing it at that time, I would select "2:00 am" or later.
Mozy's free 2gig back up does not allow phone support, only email and live chat, so if you have an issue, don't call.

Taken from their website:
1. Sign up for an account.
Create a MozyHome user account which will allow you to download MozyHome software. Its quick, easy and our step-by-step instructions will guide you through the process.
2. Download and install software.
MozyHome downloads in just seconds, and the installation is simple and fast.
3. Select files to be backed up.
Simply check the boxes next to the backup sets, or types of files you want to back up, and MozyHome does the rest. In addition to selecting files by backup sets, you also have the option of selecting specific files and directories.
