Take care when upgrading OneCare

Darius Chang  |  Jan 14, 2008

If you use Microsoft OneCare to protect your computer, take note. Our sister site, News.com, has reported on several issues faced by OneCare users when updating the program to version 2.0

OneCare was the software giant's first standalone product designed to protect the PC from viruses, spyware, trojan horse applications, etc. It sits alongside the security features built into the Windows operating system. Microsoft commented that these problems affect only a small number of users and that it will continue to automatically upgrade customers online. The latest iteration adds features such as automated printer sharing and centralized backup.

A Microsoft representative also mentioned that there will be a further update to the current Version 2.0 which may resolve some of these problems. In the meantime, any users who experience issues with the OneCare application should contact Microsoft technical support for assistance.
