I don't use ADO so I can't help you with that.

About SQL Server programming, I suggest making the BOL your friend. It's very helpful with syntax.

BOL = Books OnLine...

Windows Authentication is not an option for these users....

Basically....nothing.

They both do the job. However, with a maintenance plan YOU, the DBA, really don't know what's happening. You have just told SQL Server - backup my database(s) and log(s)...
