System Requirements
Do you have Windows? Because Terref BackupTM runs on almost any Windows PC with an Internet connection.
Terref BackupTM was designed to work on a wide range of Windows PCs. Anything from Windows 95b all the way up to Windows XP, 2003 Server, 2008 Server and Vista are supported.

No high speed? No problem.
Though backups work best on a high speed Internet connection, it’s not required. In fact, many customers are totally satisfied using Terref BackupM on dial-up or accelerated dial connections.


Older PC? Don’t worry.
Our Backup Software is small and efficient, so it can run easily on older Home PCs. For example, if you have an old Pentium PC running Windows 95 with 64Mb of RAM, you should be fine.
Our software has been tested to work on the minimum configuration recommended by Microsoft for each version of Windows. If you are happy with the performance of your system today, rest assured that the backup will not degrade your performance.

Software designed for firewall compatibility.
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. Or, put another way, if your PC can surf the web you should have no trouble using our backup service.
(Tech Note: The web portal uses ftp on ports 21 and 443. The backup client uses a proprietary protocol that looks to a firewall like SSL on port 443.)

A brief note about personal firewall software:
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 Terref BackupTM 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 Terref_Backup_ins.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"
