5.0 out of 5 stars A superb, well priced security suite, 19 Jul 2008

By	John Nunn (Coventry, U.K.) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)

OneCare is not just an Antivirus product it is a all encompassing security suite including features like antivirus, anti-spyware, and firewall, as well as PC tuning features like backup, disk defragmentation, and so on. What makes OneCare unique is that it essentially provides many of the centrally-managed IT administrative functionality one might expect in a corporate environment, but to home users. But instead of providing a human administrator, Microsoft provides an Internet-based service that works continually and automatically and is always up to date. You only deal with OneCare, per se, when something goes wrong. And if something really goes wrong, Microsoft is providing support via phone, email, or Web chat.

Windows Live OneCare features include:
Anti-malware
- Anti-Virus
- Anti-Spyware
- Firewall
PC Performance
- Hard drive defragmentation
- Backup
- Remove unnecessary files
- PC Tune-up

The cost of OneCare includes the ability to install on up to three separate pc's allowing all of your computers to be protected. There really is no better solution available especially at this price.

5.0 out of 5 stars For Me It's Fantastic, But Is OneCare For You? Maybe!, 7 Jan 2008

By	S. Islam "Let's Try That Again Shall We?" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'll try make this quick, I've had many antivirus and firewalls in the past, most times I have had to run multiple applications to protect my computer, anti-virus, anti-spyware, adware you name it.

Most times I'd end spending 10 to 15 minutes a day updating all this these applications making sure it is all working correctly e.g. check logs, update database, I was never sure if I was safe.

OneCare really does do it all, and the best bit is, it does it by itself, updates all the firewall, spyware, adware, malware and what not.. From time to time it will state things need to be done e.g. back up, scan. If some how these are not in your interest you can turn off them.
Simple status
Green = Up-to-date - No Action
Yellow = Safe = awaiting action
Red = Dangerous = Need immediate action

I see this as a simple friendly all round protection.
Most importantly, I'm just like you, I want to use my computer to surf the net make purchases, read and send emails, and what not. This is what people really should think about, I mean do you want to spend all that time maintaining you computer rather thing using it... and I'll say it simple, regards to internet security OneCare take care of your computer while you use it, whereas most of the alternatives you need to take care of it before it can take care of you.

It gets 5 star from me.

A word for the Technical/Advance Users
It's fantastic, but I won't over praise it for the advance users, here is a word of advice for those advance user, if you want to get in-depth and control as lot of things, OneCare won't let you, maybe in the future but not now.

The firewall is easy its automatic, only accepts safe programs to use the net, (can be blocked if wanted) if its not in its safe list, it asks your permission, all which can be altered later, however if you allow it, it is saved and will be allowed. Some people prefer it to be asked every time, OneCare doesn't have this option, but to overcome it, you will need to delete it from the firewall policy.

I must admit I do like the way it shares your printer, you could be away from you printer and as long as there is a OneCare computer connected to your printer it will print, which by the way I never seemed to get sorted via manual networking as before it was always temperamental.

Is OneCare for you?
New Users - YES
Moderate Users - YES
Regular Users - YES
Everyday User - YES
Advance User - Maybe
Control Freaks - NO

3.0 out of 5 stars Reasonable product for non-geeks!, 27 Jul 2008

By	James B. Spink "Jim" (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)

These days it is essential to have some form of antivirus protection software installed on your computer. Various companies offer products to do the job and most perform various other functions as well. This offering from Microsoft has the essential virus protection plus other security features, backup, PC tuning and automatic updates amongst others.

This product has the Microsoft look and feel which will perhaps make it more user-friendly than some of its competitors. It will suit beginners and non computer buffs particularly well as it is a fairly automatic experience to use and will take care of most issues by itself. Those people liking a bit more control should really look elsewhere.

OneCare got a Which? Computing "Best Buy" back in January 2008 and will be very popular with some users. But like many products of its type some people will love it and others will strongly prefer something else. This seems to do what it says it does - but you can never really tell how effective these products are until something goes wrong! Personally, I prefer Norton's products myself, but currently Amazon has OneCare for less than half the price of Norton's 360 so that may well influence some buyers.

OneCare is a reasonable product at a reasonable price that will appeal to many computer users.
