Thank you for the update Heather. You probably just helped to sell a
few more units for those clickfree folks.


If your internet connection is down, during a power outage or disaster,
and you need to access a backup, to bring a failed computer back online,
you won't have access to the files.

You would be better served by getting a couple USB drives for a backup
and a fire safe (since you should already have a fire safe for your
critical documents) and store the off-line USB drive in the safe.

This would give you access to your backups at any time and is a lot
cheaper than an unknown remote service.
