Check out the link and read more. The site shows 19 "positive" reviews and 13 "negative" reviews. I figure most of the "positive" reviews were generated by company employees and agents.

I sent them a message I will not renew my subscription, which is up in a few weeks.

Has anybody experience with Mozy?

By the way, for any noobs out there?
This thread is an example of “freeping”.

So the scumbag lefty rats want to boycott sponsors of a talk show host who only promotes traditional America and common decency?

Okay.

I would have to agree with the critics. If you have large amounts of data or information to back up, it takes forever--seriously. I have been attempting to back up about 1TB of data and over the course of a year, it has only managed about 200GB.

You are much better off spending your money on an external disc array and doing your backups locally without Carbonite. I'm lucky (or smart) and have mirrored each of my drives. I have decided to terminate my Carbonite contract and save the hassle and the inconvenience.

I’ve used Carbonite for several years and have used the restore process. The only problem I had was solved by re-installing the software.

The service works well. I’m canceling because of the reaction to Rush, not because their service doesnt work.

Give this outfit my files. BS I save them on two external drives and never lost anything. Sometimes I copy a file I just worked on to the externals or I use another software to do as an automatic feature. Check out Silverkeeper or I use Superduper to save the entire HD as a clone with the ability to boot. Works for my mac.

I’ve had no problem at all with Carbonite’s service. FWIW.

I tried to call this number from their site this morning and the phone was answered by a recording of some hot and wet girls. Freaked me out. I didn’t try again.

What is the big deal? Keep everything in a home directory and hang all subdirectories off of it. Then either burn it to a DVD or a large thumb drive.

System dies, restore O/S and patch it. Restore all applications and patch them, then copy your home directory and all subs back.

It’s much cleaner to install the O/S than to restore it if that is an option Carbonite offers.

You do have to have all of your software though, on DVDs preferably.

When I see the old gents with AL and VFW hats I always stop and pull out a 20.
For it I get one of their crappy 10 cent Poppies.
A bargain for what they did for me.
I’m going to patronize Rush’s next sponsors even if I don’t need their product - or if it’s crap. All of ‘em.

I only did business with two of these crud sponsors.

The slimy Left would imprison or kill Rush for speaking on behalf of conservative values if they could.

Thanks Rush!
