Product Description:

In one convenient package, Windows Live OneCare helps protect your computer, uses its optimization features to keep your PC running at its speediest, and even regularly backs up your important files: Protection Plus uses antivirus and antispyware scanners, a managed two-way firewall, and integrated anti-phishing technology to protect your computer from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, hackers, phishing, and other threats. It runs continuously, but you can scan individual files and folders for viruses on demand simply by right-clicking them. You can even scan attachments you receive via Windows Live Messenger or MSN Messenger.
Performance Plus regularly defragments your hard disk, removes any unnecessary files that may clog your computer, and helps ensure important security updates from Microsoft are installed efficiently and on time.
Backup and Restore regularly copies your important files and settings to CD, DVD, external hard disk, network drive, or other data-storage device. Instant Help provides online help anytime you need it, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Security check with just a click of the mouse
Live One Care may be a bit difficult to install but it has many good security features and also PC Health. It seems to show up when applications access the net and registers all. It also does not slow down the computer as others do.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Computer security and backups are now a background task.
First encountered Microsoft's Windows OneCare in 2005 as a Beta project that I participated in. Wouldn't have gotten involved except that I had found Symantec's Norton AntiVirus to have become a real resource hog, and the products from McAfee weren't any better, despite their claims. I had been a loyal user of Norton AntiVirus since those days that Peter Norton was still running his innovative company, one that pioneered anti-virus applications as we know them... but that was then, and this was now. ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It's a Great Product!
I have Comcast so I get McAfee for free. Well, I ended up with a virus that practically shut my computer down. After Microsoft helped me get rid of the virus they recommended Live OneCare. They offer a 45 day trial and I really liked it. Compared to Norton and McAfee, Windows has them beat by far and better yet Amazon's price is just about 45% off the regular price. I truely recommend this antivirus. It's programmed to tune up your computer once a month and automatically backs up your files. It's easy ... Read More


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your time installing on an older computer
I thought this would be worth a try since it came included with Qwest DSL service, and reviews here seemed generally positive. It did not work well on my 7-year old system, though. After a couple weeks struggling with it, I finally was able to uninstall it.

First of all, this requires a lot of RAM. My system was doing OK, but getting a bit low on RAM at 384 MB until I installed this. With Windows Live OneCare installed it wanted around 500 MB just to boot up--even while not running anything. ... Read More


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Totally Worthless Software -Cust No Support comes Standard
I actually bought this product twice and installed it on my desktop, my laptop and my mothers laptop computer. It was seemingly easy to use and I liked the ease of making regular backups to my USB drive. The only problem was the registration: It required an e-mail account with .hotmail or .live. I did not want either of those e-mail addresses, but I created one so that I could register the software. For months and months (over a year), I had no problem scanning and backing up; but when my laptop went ... Read More
