 * I don’t like it at all. I don’t know where my backups are going. I can’t find
   any control over where I back up. I like to backup to my local system but i do
   not see a way to do that. It is not flexible at all. It keeps giving me this 
   error “wp-cron.php is returning a Recv failure”. I have followed the “FAQ” it
   refers to and still can not fix it. I’m getting rid of it and going back to using
   ftp.

 * Your backups are stored on your server in the backupwordpress folder in wp-content.
 * The wp-cron issue is something outside our control, although the error might 
   not actually be stopping your backups from running, do automatic backups work?

 * Thanks for replying. I was just a little frustrated. Sorry about that. I’ve got
   it all figured out now.
