If you delete a file you cancel the back up as well. The back up is quite slow.
If you change the PC it can be a trouble.

Just in beta version but it seems well done.
250GB of space, automatic back up, your own ftp, access from everywhere.
Unfortunately It doesn?t have an affiliate program, but just per invitation for now.
FREE to try first month.
First it guides you to set up an account with Amazon.
To continue, a lousy $20 one-off for lifetime, all upgrades, all your machines now and anywhere. It uses Amazon's spare space. The front-end is so easy: set up a schedule of what and when e.g my changed /datafiles at /midnight daily. Even keeps changed files.
Await the monthly bill from Amazon, big bikkies? Heck no -- 15 cents per GIGabyte per month.
Secure? Sure is... your OWN secret strong encryption key, unknown to Amazon or Jungle disk.
Data is as available as a network icon on your desktop, to view, download, rename, delete etc...

He has a deluxe option for an extra $1 a month to restrict uploading data to changed files. Go mad, spend up big.
Check out an interview where security guru finds it A1;
