Bonkey is built upon Java and the Eclipse RCP framework. It allows files to be backed up to and from local disks, network shares, FTP and SFTP sites and Amazon's S3 storage service. Backup jobs can be scheduled for groups of files, optionally compressing and/or encrypting the files and notifying errors by email. Backups can be full copies, with timestamps, or modified files only. MS SQL Server databases can also be backed up. Bonkey starts up automatically when your computer starts.

Will not lauch!
The download and install was very quick and easy. However, when I tried launching the program, it got an "Incompatible JVM" popup with "Version 1.3.1_01 of the jvm is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.4.1 or greater is required." message. Without checking my current version, I Googled JVM, downloaded and installed the newest version. According to the Add-Remove Programs, I now have "Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_16". I still get the same stupid error message trying to launch Bonkey. I think they conspired with Microsoft.
