East-Tec Backup Lite

Overview

East-Tec Backup Lite is a program developed by EAST Technologies. Upon installation, it defines an auto-start registry entry which allows the program run on each boot for the user which installed it. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The software installer includes 6 files and is usually about 9.6 MB (10,061,642 bytes). A majority of the PCs this is running on, most OS versions are Windows 7 (SP1). While about 83% of users of East-Tec Backup Lite come from the United States, it is also popular in United Kingdom.
