Backup utility

Can anyone recommend a backup utility that I can install on Vista and XP? I
want to avoid the native tools. I ould like something that encrypts the
backup and can password protect them too.

Do you mean backup the entire computer like a Ghost image?

I know it has password protection, I don't know if it encrypts the backup
image.

I'm looking to backup select files and folders, not a ghost type image.

If you want partition image backup then look at Drive Snapshot
http://www.drivesnapshot.de/en/home.htm . It's small (less than 200 kB),
very fast and reliable tool. I use it from years. It's compatible with
all Windows version (with Vista too) except Windows 98. Images can be
encrypted with password protected AES 128 bit key. And you can simply
exclude certain files or folders from backup.

I've been having a look at Second Copy, looks like it might be what I'm
after.
