I'm just curious if the site is being backed up, we, I, everyone has seen what happens to site who dont get backed up. WinMXCommunity (Filebreech), my own site, and Jon Stacey have all been sacked from not having the site backed up. I'm probably the worst, and here I am preaching to someone else, like a smoker telling somone not to smoke. But back the site up, in a week's time, I've seen the site get practically 2,000 posts. And most of all put it on your computer, if the severs disk crashes are gets overwritten the backup will be overwritten as well (but you already knew that :wink:).

It is less than 35MB at the moment Zeus, and on Cable only takes a few minutes to transfer :)

in my case, and my site isn't quite that big (unless you include the music files) but I'm on 56k, so it takes me around an hour. And also since this forum has new posts on it all the time, the size of the back up always increase.
