    file back up

    hi there can anyone help i have three pc all running XP and are networked, and i need to back up files from all the pc,s i have read a few articles with reference to back up software, but it seems i have to back up the whole hard disc on all three PC.s, and if i do this i will need a good few DVD/CD DISCS FOR DATA storage.
    can anyone help with reference to the quickest way to save the data, or a good software i can purchase to do the job for me, i wish to back up on a weekly/monthly basis, and will store the data for 12 months before i can overwrite.

    thanks for any help

    Hi, have a look a Mozy it allows you store up to 2gb online, it is i believe still in beta(therefore your choice) and is encrypted, i just had to reinstall one of my pcs and simply downloaded the saved files, i would however not upload sensitive information, but it is good for favourites, documents, pictures and music. the initial upload can take a while but there after it only uploads your new data.
    Available from Mozy

    hope this helps.
