How many years do you get for that price? Is that the price for only 1 computer?

There were certain programs on my system that Live >> One >> Care didn't recognize. But those brief incidents told me that the fire >> wall >> was indeed alive and working. When a warning did occur, it was simple >> enough to Alt Tab to the screen and check a box which would allow the >> program to operate. The screen, like the rest of Live One Care was >> completely accessible in every respect. >> >> I started reading carefully about this program and discovered that in >> addition to scanning for viruses and spy programs, the "Tune Up" >> function >> of the software was also defragmenting my disk, finding and removing >> unnecessary files and in short, making my system work much better than it >> has in a long time. The software constantly checks for updated anti-virus >> definitions and updates itself. If there is a problem or something which >> requires the operator's attention, a balloon pops up which advises the >> operator of that fact, then discretely disappears, allowing normal work >> to >> continue uninterrupted. The most remarkable thing about Live One Care is >> that it performs most of these tasks in the background and alerts the >> operator only when necessary. >> Many people have a serious aversion to things marketed by Microsoft.
