Review by Miranda

I installed this product on both my laptop and my desktop PCs. My laptop meets the minimum requirements for Windows Live OneCare, but the program still slowed the laptop down to a maddeningly slow pace. I uninstalled it, and immediately the laptop sped up again.

If your computer exceeds the minimum requirements (OneCare requires at least 256 MB of RAM; I wouldn’t try it unless you have 512 MB or more), this is a pretty good anti-virus program. So far it hasn’t found any viruses or other problems on my desktop PC, so I can’t evaluate how well it deals with them. It is easy to use, though, with an attractive, friendly user interface.

I’m not crazy about the fact that after the first year, this program requires a paid monthly subscription. I probably won’t keep it once it starts costing me money every month.
