Microsoft's antivirus package makes a splash | |

Helped by low pricing, Microsoft's Windows Live OneCare landed the No. 2 spot in sales at American stores in its debut month, according to The NPD Group. The antivirus and PC care package nabbed 15.4 percent of security suite sales at retailers such as Best Buy and Amazon.com, according to NPD's data. The average price was $29.67, well below Microsoft's list price of $49.95. Online at Amazon.com, OneCare is available for only $19.99. OneCare hit U.S. store shelves in late May, three years after Microsoft announced its intent to move into the antivirus realm. The product combines antivirus, anti-spyware and firewall software with backup features and several tune-up tools for Windows PCs. Symantec and McAfee have both announced new products to rival OneCare. | ||

One subscription to cover three machines! They need to tell the entire story about just how good a value it is. I participated in the BETA for thisd product and deployed three seats at home. It is highly effective and very lightweight - in fact, far lighter than any other AV solution I have used at home, or deployed for our customers [McAffee, and Panda].
One Care has proven to be very good and easy to manage. It has a two way firewall that is easy and a backup and recovery option that is pretty good. One thing I do not like is that if say a weekly scheduled system tune up that also includes a disk cleanup and defrag is missed because a machine was off, One Care will start on its own. That stinks for a laptop that one may not have used when the job would have run and one has to cancel the tune up before any real work may begin. I expect that One Care will continue to do very well in the market as it is so easy, and so lightweight. Users will appreciate that and move to it and a 3 for 1 protection footprint, it is great for families with kids and more than one machine. |

#3 "06/10/03 Microsoft Tuesday announced it is buying Bucharest, Romania-based antivirus software vendor GeCAD Software for an undisclosed price, making it clear that the Redmond giant intends to enter the antivirus market."
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2003/0610msav.html Wow. Talk about cruel! Microsoft only gave Symantec and McAfee 3 years warning!!!! The horror!!! They could have improved their products, made them cheaper or got out of the business all together. A normal competitor with 3 years warning would have done something! |

What all matter is that you need love, but you don’t know who it can be? So, let the love flow into your life and let them go, if you don’t feel that much connection with them but don’t stop them from entering your life. Until and unless, you let someone invade your privacy, how would you come to know their existence and character as to what they basically are and whether they are the one for whom you were looking for or not. And, we all know that humans are most vulnerable during sex, so these one night stands can certainly put you either in the good or bad books of the other person, but let them at least consider you as the content of their book. Be it in good books or bad books, let them decide, this is not your part of thinking.
