This. The whole network and everything on it are getting nuked. And due to the delay these things have, you have to assume the backup may restore the malware.

  > Everything gets a clean install and only non-binaries get restored from backup. I can do that more easily if I don't loose ~2–3 days of work though (or whatever amount of time has passed since the last offline backup). Even if I need to manually go through the documents so that only non-binaries are restored, just having them would probably be helpful. I don't know, I guess it depends a lot on the actual situation: what I was working on at the time, etc. But that $50 price tag seems alluring.
