What free program is best to use to backup computer data?

Do I need to update the immunization data base if I am only running it as an on demand scanner and if I’m not using the teatimer function? I don’t want SpyBot S&D to be my active antispyware. Can I not use the browser integration updates if, again, I’m not using it as my realtime protection?

i created a backup of my system using nero 7 backup utility… after reinstalling xp, i tried to restore the backed-up files using nero… but the wizard says the archive is corrupt and cant be restored… that backup contains very important official data… how can i restore my backup???? help pls……..

I wanted to make a raid3 to put my operating system and frequently used programs and games for speed and reliability and protection from data losses… I was wondering if I can have a raid and also have some more single hds not in raid for storage on the same computer…
Or… maybe have raid 3 for the OS and raid 1 for storage… sooo now I’m asking if I can have 2 different raid in the same computer
Also like your opinion on what raid will be best for operating system and high end gaming /applications and speed?
And what raid will be ideal for storage and protection from data loss?

Playing with the online ordering at AT&T. Looks like you have to pay minimum .95 per month for calling plan. Pus .00 minimum for 200mb of data. I just want it as backup internet access!
I wouldn’t come close to using even 100mb for calling!

In all paces it appears (if it’s not named).
2) what online free service for storage/backup data would you recommned?

HI,
I’m looking for data about the typical sales volumes of an infant toy. I’m only interested in toys of leading companies, such as Fisher Price, Tomy, MGA, Hasbro, Learningcurve and step2.

Just to clarify, I’m not looking for the total amounts of toys of any kind that a company sold. The key is the number of units sold per specific toy model.

Any solid data to backup the answer will be highly appreciated.

Now that I have officially and thoroughly incensed and outraged all the liberal leaning among you with my last question. Why is my opinion and or my belief system so inferior to yours? Does it not deserve the same protections as anyone else’s. My cherished beliefs are equally valid to yours, because they are not embraced by Hollywood , the left, and immoral (amoral) of the world are they in any way invalidated or rendered obsolete. I was called narrow-minded by one individual. Not true I have as a conservative considered the facts and come to the only logical conclusion possible for me. When one such as my self expresses an opinion contrary PC we are instantly barraged with insults, have our motives called into question, or outright told to shut up and be quiet . Why are conservatives not accorded the same courtesies and consideration that we more times than not accord our more liberal leaning brothers and sisters? Just wondering? OH one other thing . I will modify one of my previous statements . Except in the case of psychopathy people ALWAYS have a choice in how they act!

—EMERGENCY—
I’m on another computer, but my current computer has a virus! HELP! Would it be wise to do a recovery with automatic data backup if i have a virus or dull factor recovery, or does it matter at all?

This may seem like a dumb question, and i have no computer knowledge ;/
THANK YOU THANK YOU!
sorry for the typos, i meant
Recovery with automatic data backup or
full factory recovery.

The question is about the following information which was obtained from a library’s website about the free wi-fi internet they provide:
"Is the library’s wireless network secure?
The library’s public access wireless network is not secure. The library’s wireless network does not offer firewall protection, anti-virus protection, or data encryption. Data sent to or from your device can potentially be captured by someone else, and data you download (email or other files) could contain viruses, malicious code, or spyware, among other security risks. The library assumes no responsibility for the safety of your equipment or data while using the library’s network (wired or wireless). We recommend that you not transmit sensitive information (credit card data, passwords, etc.) using the library’s wireless network and that you have firewall and anti-virus software installed on your equipment. For more information about security:"

So my question is this:
If you use the internet at all, you will need to type in your password for your email. So does this mean that if you are using wi-fi like mentioned above, anyone in the vicinity with proper tools can simply grab all of the information you are typing? According to the statement above, it seems like when you use the wi-fi internet, it is just like plugging your computer into a big screen tv for everyone to see. The above statement makes it sound like anybody can just go to the library and steal everyones data that is being sent/received through there like a piece of cake. Is it really like that? If that is

My Toshiba satellite L20 laptop stopped working (it’s dead). I want to try to get the data off the hard drive- have tried attaching it to another computer using a S-ATA/IDE cable: it seems to be "turning" and it assigns it a drive letter but the bar that tells you how full it is is red (while the bars for my other drives are blue). The directories seem to be there but the files inside them seem to have disappeared or have become inaccessible (could this be a security problem?). Anyone got any good ideas/can point me in the right direction? Is all lost?

All the best

I’ll do my best to answer nikkai, though i’m not massively clever with computery stuff: the drive is connected by serial ATA-USB2
the adapter is this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/IOMAX-SATA-Adapter-Power-Drive/dp/B001A5SK56
I guess it is set as a slave. I haven’t explored the drive (do you mean actually mechanically opened it or just hunted through the files?)

My Ps3 broke, I sent it into Sony, and I got a refurb back. I already backed up all my data on a flash drive… but I just put the flashdrive in, and tried to restore my backup data, but it isn’t working!? I’m 100 percent sure that the backup data is on the flashdrive.

I did however change the file name, when I backed up the data… does this have anything to do with it not working?

When doing a complete PC backup in Windows Vista Ultimate, the backup software indicates that my data drive is considered a "system" disk and I cannot deselect it for backup. I really don’t need the drive to be backed up. Anyone know why it is showing up as a system drive? I scanned the folders and it is all just data from what I can see. Thanks for the help!

Okay, I have three programs that were installed on my laptop without my knowledge or consent and I would like them gone. All three are those fake anti-virus protection scams. One is called Anti-malware Doctor. The second is called Security Suite.

One doesn’t seem to even claim a name. I can not get rid of them through the control panel, in safe mode or otherwise. As you probably know, system restore is not possible in safe mode. In regular start-up, one or all three of these programs is blocking system restore. If I attempt to open it it is closed instantly.

I will not wipe my hard drive, I have very important information on it that I need saved.

The way I see it, I have three options. Fix it, don’t use it, use it anyway.

Not using it would inconvenience me. I need my own functioning computer for school and work. Using it anyway will eventually have undesirable consequences, I am sure, and with all the fucking windows popping up it is an entirely unpleasant experience. Fixing it would be optimal.

So, how do I remove these harmful programs and keep everything else?

Thank you so much.
Ran the malwarebyte in safe mode, found stuff, deleted it, it said restart, did (not in safe mode) problems persisted. Ran mwb again in safe mode, found stuff (only three that time) deleted it, it said restart, did (not in safe mode) problems persisted. Running it for a third time, so far has not resolved my issues.
the third time it found two things, deleted them, did not tell me to restart, remained in safe mode. I am now running it for a fourth time, and I intend to continue to do so until it finds nothing upon finishing a scan. After that, if problems still persist, I will try the task manager thing someone suggested.

However, even if that works, I will still have two out of three to get rid of. :/

Thanks for all of the suggestions, I will just keep moving down the list with trial and error until one catches them all. :) Got to the point where mwb in safe mode found nothing. Problems still persist, no improvement whatsoever. Tried the task manager thing. Right clicked on security suite, when to process, there was no option to locate file. Wtf now?

please i in terrible situation.
and have very much imp data..that do not wish to format.!

plz plzl somebody help!
