Does anyone use 'MICROSOFT LIVE ONECARE' internet security suite, is it any good,can you recomend it, or do you know one better. Thank's in advance,I will say a prayer for you as payment.

Personally, I have great difficulty with the concept of getting a product to protect me from security holes in Windows, when that product is produced by the very company responsible for those security holes.

Check out AVG anti virus and anti spyware, and ZoneAlarm firewall, all free, and all from companies specialising in filling the holes, rather than in digging them.

Ditto the above answer + try Avast antivirus and a squared free

OneCare has had some TERRIBLE reviews and I would steer well clear of it.

Even MS has admitted there are problems, see last two links below.

Here are some reviews

After searchig further I found loads of negative comments about Onecare. I decided to go for the 'ZoneAlarm internet security suite 2007' instead
Many thank's for your help.
The prayer is said for you all - so brace yourselves!.
