I'm not sure this will help anyone, but who knows.

Microsoft Word crashed and none of the data could be recovered. You know the feeling!! Then I remembered that I had subscribed to Mozy (Mozyhome Remote Backup). A good time to put it to the test. Within about 2 minutes the file had been recovered and was back on my system as "The McSheffrey Diaspora (I)" - Yeeee Hah! Mozy costs me $4.95 per month, has all my important data on a remote server and every day automatically backs up any files that have been changed. A remote backup could save your genealogical bacon too. - see the review at the URL http://www.webuser.co.uk/products/Storage_backup_2216_index.html Liam "A bird in the bush is worth two in the cat" ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:46:40 EDT From: [email protected] Subject: Re: [DONEGALEIRE] File Recovery To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" In a message dated 8/20/2008 3:31:41 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: I was working on a 17 page Word file last week (The McSheffrey Diaspora) when the whole thing went pear shaped.

So you don't need to be in SA to lose it all. I had been using the laptop as a backup. Fortunately the Desktop computer survived along with my data. So now, irrespective of hard drive failure, theft or fire, the data (which is worth more than $4.95 a month) is on a server in the US of A, ready to be recovered at a convenient time. My email is on it too, addresses, inbox and sent items. Let me know what your IT son thinks of the Remote Backup idea.
