A Big Relief
After struggling for months with the dreadful Norton 360, I'm so glad that I've managed to find a stable, simple, non-infuriating security system which doesn't slow my PC to a crawl.

I'm sure that none of the systems on the market are 100% perfect - but the vast gulf between this product and Norton makes a 5 star rating entirely reasonable.

If you USE Windows, then buy Windows!
For the last fifteen years, I have used McAfee or Norton for my virus protection. I have received virus's numerous times and had problems with my firewalls being set too high by some clown I hired who was an expert. The worst part was that Norton and McAfee never notified me to update my subscription (they are supposed to). Maybe it was my fault. When I mentioned this to my computer expert nephew his first questions was, "what system was I using?" Microsoft. He advised me to dump Norton and never use McAfee. If I have Windows Vista, doesn't it make sense to use a Windows product?

Since I have installed it, the only problem I had was getting my past username and password correct. It runs MUCH faster than any other software I have had and is simple to install. Uninstalling Norton was harder than installing this. We all seem to have to learn the hard way. Windows Live OneCare works great!

Runs great.
Ive been using onecare for quite some time now, (well as long as its been available) I'm currently running it on Vista Ultimate x64 and it does the job brilliantly, I've had my PC about 4 months, and a virus has never got into my system. Maybe onecare cant take all the credit, being careful what you download helps. But it dosent slow the machine down at all, cheaper than other anti-virus's. Overall if your running a windows based machine whether 64bit or 32bit, this is the product for you.
