Handy Backup is a powerful backup program that makes an automatic backup of your critical data virtually to any type of storage media: floppy disk, hard drive, network drive, or a remote FTP server. You only need to set it up once and it will monitor changes and execute scheduled backups and synchronizations at the time you specify. Strong file encryption, password protection, zip compression on the fly, and many other features will protect your valuable data.

The Professional edition is a powerful computer backup software featuring HDD image backup, hard drive cloning, and a range of security options.

Erases your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file and puts this as the only line:

69.64.71.218 handybackup.com www.handybackup.com www.softlogica.com softlogica.com

By doing this, it eliminated over 150 custom entries I have for server management on my system. Thanks Handy Backup!

Purchased this software and had problems installing it. Support is NON-existant. Will NOT reply to questions. Kiss your money goodbye if you buy from these losers.

I will be spreading the word far and wide about these thiefs.

This one still doesn't seem to delete files from the second folder when synchronizing

The software works well, though could be easier to use, still.

Btw, the link's great, but the right version can only be purchased from the company site, www.handybackup.net/order.shtml (receive a discount coupon upon purchase too, so I've heard).

I've always used the Handy Backup of Novosoft LLC and the quality, functionality and support of this product never rouse censure. I also know that Novosoft LLC is company that have all rights and ability to improve and support this product.

Stay away from this ... if you have a problem or even a question those guys will never respond ... There are much better and cheaper solutions than this crap ...

I'm actually curious if this is a legal version of Handy Backup. Let me know if I am wrong, but the original Handy Backup was written by Novosoft Inc (www.handybackup.com) in the United States. Then Novosoft LLC (www.novosoft-us.com or www.handybackup.net) out of Novosibirsk started offering Handy Backup, now through version 4.5. Which company and more importanty which version (Novosoft Inc only has version 4.0 while Novosoft LLC has version 4.5) is the true "legal" programmed version.

**EDIT**
After reading up in Google Groups in this thread http://groups.google.com...vr.pol.co.uk%26rnum%3D1 I discovered that Novosoft LLC seems to be the bad company. Snapfiles.com lists Novosoft Inc as the owner of the program and Tucows doesn't even list Handy Backup. Beware of this link and don't buy from Novosoft LLC.
