Windows Live OneCare Is It Really Worth It?

Microsoft claims that Windows Live OneCare is the all-in-one, always on PC care service. Working quietly in the background on your computer, so you don't need to worry about those nasty viruses, adware, hackers, and all those other unwanted intruders. It makes other claims as well. But the buyer should beware!!! Large numbers of users are making claims that OneCare is deleting entire email folders. Yikes!

Apparently there are a few bugs remaining to be resolved. If you are interested in making certain you understand the entire bruhaha, read the thread located on the Microsoft discussion forum, it is titled "Outlook and Outlook Express Mail Store Missing or Quarantined", be sure to read the entire thread to understand both sides of the issue. Oh, and you might want to wait to sign up for the service.

I'm going to say no just due to the fact that Microsoft hasn't made anything that works correctly in years. Anything new they release is bound not to work... ever. Just my opinion though

You took the words out of my mouth, Bub - would you trust Micro$oft to look after your computer?
