Hi, Fred,

If you want something automatic and off site, you could consider 
Carbonite. It's encrypted and accessible. It does come for a price, 
however. It is $59 per year for the least expensive plan. You can try 
it for fifteen days, and if you enter Kim Komando's first name in the 
appropriate box when you first sign up, you get two months free. Then 
you don't have to think about backing up.

I don't currently use this service, but if I should decide I want an 
off site back-up, I would seriously consider Carbonite. Most 
certainly, if I had a business or a lot of confidential information 
on my computer, I would do this. Most likely, I would also back 
everything up on an outboard hard drive as well.

Cordially,

Evelyn
