What’s the Real Impact of Windows Live OneCare? | |
|
||
| Time: 00:18 EST/05:18 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Certified Professional Magazine Online | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Microsoft recently announced the availability of their Windows Live OneCare security suite service. The service is an extension of their Windows XP SP2 "Security Center," offering intended to bring together anti-virus, anti-spyware, personal firewall and automatic updates. It also includes prompting of regular backups and disk optimization. The package is available for purchase from Microsoft, and will be included in Windows Vista...likely for a subscription price above the OS purchase cost. Consumers have historically had a bad track record for purchasing AV update licenses after the expiry of whatever trial period comes with the product pre-installed on their new computer. Windows Live OneCare doesn't change this fact; people will still have to opt to purchase the on-going license and will likely opt not to do so. | ||
