Have you tried the free one he's featuring on his site?

A word about backing up. I have clients who don't think backing up is that big of a deal, until their hard drive crashes. Then they wished they would have done something sooner. And all hard drives will eventually fail. It's just a matter of time. It could be tomorrow, or 5 years from now - its totally unpredictable.
I like tape backups with a regular schedule and removing at least one of the tapes from the site. Then in case of a fire - you've got something that is restorable. Only data needs to be backed up - you can re-install all the programs again. Another good option now since the price has come down do much is to burn a CD of your hard drive. It might take two or three - but they're cheap. The more redundant you are in your backing up - the better able you are to handle a hard drive failure.
I just noticed this group yesterday and thought I would put my .02 in - I work in the field. (But hopefully not more than a few more years!!) I like trading better.
