...Until the day you do, then it’s the most important thing in the world! Backup is one of those boring things that you have to do and yet it does nothing. Not a thing. It is completely unproductive and adds nothing to you life. Kinda like insurance. All it does is cost money and doesn’t help one bit! Until… the day that you get burgled or have a fire. THEN you are really glad you were prepared.

And ”prepared” is the key word here. While the fire is burning you can’t arrange insurance. When the bear you picked up at the local train station has already flooded your house it’s too late! And when your computer has already died, or has ransomware or there’s smoke coming from it, it’s too late.

Vodafone Cancels Email Affecting Many Computer Users

Vodafone recently announced that they would be shutting down their email service, as of November 30.

“The decision follows months of problems with high levels of spam and delayed mail. Vodafone's consumer director Matt Williams said customers had told Vodafone its email service was no longer delivering the sort of experience they needed. "That's simply not good enough for us here at Vodafone" and was why it had made the decision to close the service down”

If you're still using Windows Live Mail for email you may be at risk. Microsoft dropped support for Windows Live Mail earlier this year.
