    Good Backup Software
    Recently I have started having computer problems and have decided it is time to start backing up my data to one of my external hard drives. Does anyone know a good program that is relatively cheap? (less than $20)

    Thank you!

    There is always micorsoft backup
    Acronis True Image 11 Home is widely used and a good backup utility, there home page has it at 49$, but Amazon has it listed at $23

    Good backup software is not cheap. I would go with Norton's Ghost by Symantic. They've just released version 14.0 for $69 but you can probably get it cheaper.

    * Support for standard ZIP compression. Easy recovery even without the program installed.
    * 256-bit AES strong encryption will ensure full security of your confidential data.

    Titan looks like a good one, but Norton, Personally I would nevre recommend Norton to any one - if you have problems "getting rid" of norton, there is an uninstall tool that you can download that will remove traces of norton form your system

    Download and run the Norton Removal Tool

    I've never had problems with Norton... I take care of corporate desktops/laptops/servers etc and it works like a charm!
