 Surprisingly good value MS product - You can do it, MS. August 2, 2008
In general I do not like MS products. Most people probably agree. However, fortunately or unfortunately, this is the real exception. This one has key four elements as a good security software; 1)detection power, 2)light operation, 3)intergration, and 4)low cost subscription.
Annual sub cost is $50 per 3 users, lower than $40 per 1 user of McAfee, Symantec, and Trend. Zone Alarm and BitDefender are $20 and $22 per one user and so close but still OneCare is the best value.
Detection power is not at the best but clearly above the average and probably in the top quintile. The intergration with Vista is good. It has a regular back-up and tuning program as well, which I found very useful to protect pictures and videos from my camera.
Cost per user account is getting more important, as more and more poeple started to install virtual PC 2007 and use multiple OS on a single PC and then found security software for EACH OS is required.
If you are concerned about future sub cost and looking for the best product with a good balance, this is it.
 Windows live onecare July 31, 2008
Decent multi computer anti virus system. Seems a little like defender, in that the first time it scans, it seems to find things and doesn't find any problems after that (although that is what it's for).
having back up, anti virus, anti spy ware and defrag all in one has merits.
 Solid, Reliable, Smooth Product July 30, 2008
I've been using this ever since it came out. Easy to install, works well, has kept all 3 of my house computers free of invasions and viruses. It doesn't use up much resources and isn't overly intrusive, although it does tend to get insistent if you ignore its requests to update it and allow Microsoft Windows/IE updates in as well. Best thing about it---you can install it on up to 3 computers.
Hint: Instead of renewing the virus protection annually, just buy a completely new version of the software, uninstall the old and then install the new---it's cheaper!

I haven't received the Windows Live OneCare 2.0 due to fact that when I placed the order, the One-click option had the shipping address as my recent address.
Mircosoft Windows Live One July 29, 2008
I am very satified with the Windows Live OneCare software. It works well on my computer. It was shipped immediately and I recieved it in record time.
