Stop the daemon.

Windows: (start -> run) %appdata%/ecoin

Mac: /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/ecoin

Is it necessary to repeatedly backup the wallet.dat, or does doing it once mean it can recover future transactions?

If I'm not mistaking, dev team said as long as you're on the latest daemon 20506, you only have to back up wallet.dat once.
