OneCare 1.5 goes to manufacturing
ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft quietly announced this week that it has released version 1.5 of its Windows Live OneCare security and antivirus offering to manufacturing.
That means that the upgrade is on track to be ready just in time to be announced with the consumer release of Windows Vista and Office 2007 at the end of the month.
Not surprisingly, chief among the new features and capabilities being added with 1.5 is compatibility with -- you guessed it -- Windows Vista.
Windows Live OneCare provides a set of online services aimed at protecting users from net threats as well as at helping keep PC hard drives backed up and systems updated. It provides real-time and on-demand antivirus, antiphishing, and antispyware scanning along with a two-way managed firewall.
