    Online Backup

    I picked up a cheap Iomega portable HD from comet the other day, and it came with some backup software. One bit does the usual incremental backup to the drive, the other is a free 2Gb online account with this lot
    http://mozy.com/home
    The 2Gb account is open to anybody, just register and install some software, appears to be a handy way to shift reasonable sized files around and backup a bit of data. Any thoughts on this service, or any free alternatives with larger amounts of storage? I currently have photos backed up at a separate address, but this looks handy for important data files.
