Default If you have Comcast as your ISP
I use Comcast, they sent me an email telling me they will backup my data (2 GB only). This may work for certain files due to the limited storage. Here is the email and link below:

http://security.comcast.net/backup/?cid=NET_33_305

JoCarole,

Thanks for sharing this. I will need to switch to Comcast when I move and I will certainly be using their backup services. I currently use Mozy and an external hard drive but will probably use this instead of Mozy since I will have an account with them.

From what I understand they also offer Norton Security Suite as part of the package.

Lee, they just changed from McAfee Security Suite to Norton, I have to switch soon or else lose it. I For my main backups I use Carbonite and then Click Free external drive for both computers. I am looking for a 3rd backup too.

Comcast has been pretty good for a while now, so I am happy with them.
