Just when you though all thoes nice boxes flying up actually did something, the truth has arrived
http://news.com.com/2061-10789_3-6165661.html?tag=nefd.topIn extensive testing by AV-Comparatives, an Austrian project set up to test different security products, OneCare antivirus was the only product to fail to achieve any kind of certification, leading the report's author to suggest that he might leave Microsoft's product out of future tests.
"Microsoft OneCare performed very low in the test and did not reach the minimum requirements for participation," Andreas Clementi wrote in the report
"Due (to) that, its inclusion in future tests of this year (will) have to be re-evaluated."
In AV-Comparatives' test--which covered 16 antivirus products--OneCare came out at the bottom of the list in every category. It scored a 91 percent success rate for detecting Windows viruses, macros, worms and scripts, 79.6 percent for detecting back doors, Trojans and other malware, and 82.4 percent for its overall detection rates.
The highest scoring antivirus packages in the tests were Gdata AVK, TrustPort, Avira, F-Secure, Kaspersky and eScan, all of which scored an "Advanced+" rating.

When it comes to Vista you have bought a lemon O/S that will make you sharp at calling support and sour with rage, yet too yellow to remove it because its already trashed your xp , thank god for its thick skin
Seriously folks dont rely on a company that installed dial home malware and other trojans on your machine masquerading as "critical updates" that where released purely to ensure your locked into their business plan, get something from the list above if you want to stay safe.
