Though backups work best on a high speed Internet connection, it's not required. In fact, many customers are totally satisfied using KineticSecure on dial-up or accelerated dial connections.
Our Backup Software is small and efficient, so it can run easily on older systems.
The backup software was also designed to be compatible with home and office hardware firewalls. To a firewall it just looks like a web browser. If your PC can surf the web you should have no trouble using our backup service.
(Tech Note: The web portal uses HTTP and HTTPS on ports 80 and 443. The backup client uses a proprietary protocol that looks to a firewall like SSL on port 443.)
Lately personal software firewalls have become very popular - ones that run on your local PC and protect you from viruses, spyware, and email worms. While KineticSecure is compatible with these programs, you may worry that is not the case when you're installing. When you first install our backup software, you may see a pop-up security alert from your firewall software saying that a program BACKUP.EXE is trying to access the Internet. You should be prompted to "Permit" or "Deny" this program access. It is important that when you see this message you say "Permit" so that KineticSecure will work properly on your system.
