    I'm looking for a recommendation for an easy to use data back up program for clients who wish to backup their own data. Roxio is awful. You create a project that includes Folder X, and if you add a new file to that folder, it will not be added to the Project the next time you run the backup project. I've had problems with Nero as well. Anybody have a cheaper easy solution than $99 BackUpMyPC?

    Thanks,

    I use Acronis True Image. Its easy to use, and has never let me down yet. Best part is that it can do a full backup of the system drive in windows, without having to reboot.

    Thanks for the tip. Actually I just found SyncBack http://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/syncback-hub.html which seems to offer the exact functionality I want, plus you can't beat the price (free). Hopefully it will work as well as they claim.

    Hope this helps somebody else.
