Publisher's Description
From Symantec:
Norton Ghost is a comprehensive disk imaging solution for home and small office users. Enhanced with Drive Image technology, which Symantec obtained through the acquisition of PowerQuest Corporation, Norton Ghost offers consumers the ultimate solution in data storage and protection with a complete, reliable, quick and easy way to backup system files, programs, settings, documents and other important data.
With Norton Ghost, users can now create backup images without restarting their computer or exiting Windows through the product's hot imaging technology. Imaging takes place in the background without interruption, allowing users to continue work on their system as the backup takes place. Users also benefit by saving valuable time and storage space with Norton Ghost's incremental backup and restore feature. Once an initial image of a hard drive is completed, users can make future backups incrementally - updating only the files and information that have changed rather than backing up the entire hard drive again. In the event it is necessary to restore data, users can choose to restore the entire system or just specific files or folders.

"Great - no problems in 7 years"
Version: Norton Ghost 15.0
Pros
It simply works with no hassles. Set it and forget it. In 7 years I haven't seen the first problem with it in any version of Windows from XP to Vista to 7.
Cons
Not the cheapest, but you can find it on sale for next to nothing.
Summary
I don't think you can beat it. It simply works manually or automatically time after time with no problems or hassles.

"Savior for my Lenovo"
Version: Norton Ghost 15.0
Pros
Simple to use and create backups! Fully recommended! I have not tried to backup / restore from a remote FTP site.
Cons
Could not find any till date.
Summary
I used / use the Norton Ghost to restore my Lenovo laptop (restores all driver software / windows XP etc to the original state) Very useful when your system gets corrupt. I recommend the Ghost. I have made an initial image of the boot drive to a DVD. I use it to restore my Lenovo when my driver software gets corrupt. Restore takes less than five minutes.
