I have been using Lazy Mirror for several years, maintaining a backup of my 500 GB+ set of digital images.
I'm surprised this software hasn't gotten more attention - it is one of the simplest and cleanest programs in its class.
Lazy Mirror works fine on my system and does not break when I mess with my OS (Vista Enterprise x64).
It did take me a while to understand the setup - I have accidentialy turned it off sevaral times by using the 'X' to close it. I'm not sure if this is fixed in the most recent version.
I like it because it keeps a true mirror backup - no encrypted garbage to wade through, no delay in pulling out an older version of a file - it's just there.
Given the low price of drives these days a near-line backup solution is practical and Lazy Mirror does a no-brainer job of keeping such a backup current.
