Damn microshaft.... just had to F disk.

The concept your speaking of is often referred to a 'cloud computing' - cloud computing is different from SaaS, cloud may use SaaS as an implementation technology, but generally cloud refers more to a huge conceptual space - the "cloud" - in which data and programs may be stored and run almost anywhere within the infrastructure rather than on a specific computer; clouds typically are in-house, but there is no need for that, and yes I share you concerns and carry even more of my own.

You are relying on:

1.  Internet connection - both yours and theirs - very true, hell of a way to run a business, eh?

2.  Band width - again both of yours - yup!

3.  Their equipment and software - and their staff, and their security - and the Feds can call on them and take your data and you would never know it until after the fact

4.  Their company's ability to stay in business - again, yup

5.  Their integrity - don't trust anyone I've not and cannot meet -contracts suck, need to be enforced in court and in the meantime your business goes to hell

6.  Privacy - someone could potentially access your data without your approval, think government, or crackers - see #3 above

Datacenter storage over the internet is a viable option, used almost exclusively to safe guard against theft or massive damage to your business or home, fire or flood, but be aware of the limitations and liabilities involved. - if using it for an Iron Mountain type service, where it just goes into storage period, no problem.

Describe, in the best detail you can, the issues that occurred with or before this.  Updates, new software, hardware, anything you can think of.  List you type of computer and system specs, including OS.  It sounds like unless you figure this out, it'll continue to happen until time stops.  I'm not a computer master, but I do enjoy pretending to know alot.

Laptop or desktop???

Recently, two nights ago, my desktop wouldn't boot to the Windows desktop after an update.  Knowing all, I unplugged my wireless adapter when starting the computer and she works.  After the first successful boot I can plug the adapter in and she works fine every time.
