Thanks, Barry. I'll have to think about many of the points you raise. In the short term, would it be possible to allow the choice of a file extension longer than three characters, to lessen the chance that the combination you select is included by a later version of CryptoLocker? As you say, it's no...

Mapping and unmapping network drives
I'm getting concerned about protecting backups on external USB drives or network drives from a possible Cryptolocker (or equivalent) attack. The only way that I can see of doing this is, when a backup is completed, to disconnect the USB drives from the system, or (if they're network drives), removin...

Pruning backup
I've got a backup that has failed because I hadn't noticed that the storage medium had got full. I've cleared the disk out a little, and then removed some of the files to be backed up from the "Manage Backup" file list in the backup job in question. When I tried to run the backup, AISBacku...

AISBackup cannot run interactively
This is a strange one. I have a backup that is auto-run from the MS task scheduler. I recently upgraded to the version before 367 (the behaviour didn't change when I went to 367), and since then I've been getting the message "AISBackup cannot run interactively while an auto-run job is processin...

Testing backup on ftp server
I want to validate the backed-up data on an ftp server, so I selected Manage Backup > Validate (Test) Backup. What it does, however, is test the backup on the local machine, not the versions of the zip files that have been uploaded to the ftp server. Is there a way of getting AISBackup to check the ...

Hi Barry That's the one I've been using up until recently (as BulletproofFTP, but it's the same executable), with no problems. Then I went over to using a network storage unit. I first tried the Linksys NAS200, and its FTP server worked fine with AISBackup. However, the NAS200 is painfully slow, so ...

FTP backups can't find previous one
Hi Barry I've just set up a new ftp server to hold a couple of remote backups which have been running for several years without problems. The server is on a D-Link DNS-323 network storage device, and it seems to behave normally: I can write files to it and read from it without problems, both over th...

Long delay starting auto run backup (Vista)
Hi Barry I'm finding that backups run from Vista's task scheduler are sometimes taking a very long time. Looking at the logs, there seem to be two patterns: 1. Normal pattern: An SSTART message, followed by three INF messages, the last of which is "Creating session: xxx", and then three ST...
