So the first thing is: download it and install it.
Then open LJ-Sec - it'll ask you to log in. Do that with the login information of the account you want to back up (I'm guessing your fic journal).
On the menu bar, go to 'journal' and then to 'repost selected items to another journal.' Fill in the name and password for the journal you're copying to (your Dreamwidth account).
Under 'server URL,' type in 'www.dreamwidth.org/interface/flat' then tick off all the little ticky boxes and click 'begin reposting.' You can use this to back up to InsaneJournal, too, if you want - you'd just use your info for that account instead of the Dreamwidth account.
If you run into problems, there's an LJ comm specially devoted to LJ-Sec - but I've nerver actually had a problem with LJ-Sec or LJ Archive (which lets you back everything up including comments to your computer).
