  Thanks for the MS-toady response, Milo.  Alas, my question is not "is there a work-around?" but rather "why should i trust a piece of security software that has clearly be compromised?"  Note that this is a problem which has been around for months and which MS has not been able to solve.

  An explanation of quarantine failed and possible resolutions can be found here - http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsOneCare/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1548384&SiteID=2

  One Care has not been compromised. The program is working as designed but the explanation of what, why, and how to resolve "quarantine failed" is inadequate but should be much improved in the next build update as should the help links. If you need support now use the links posted by Milo. I would also like to mention that the people who help on this forum are One Care users like yourself who volunteer their time for the benefit of the community, and are not Microsoft employees so you might want to keep that in mind when posting.

  Jim:
  Thanks.  I understand now that the poor design of the interface is the problem with the quarantine warning.  Alas, my concern is more about the fact that the help function of OneCare leads to a spoofed site, and that the links from the warning lead to blank pages.  BTW, the word "toady" would generally refer to someone who is sucking up to an organization, not a member of the organization.

  Rob, the help links and content are still a work in progress. I'm sure this will be resolved before the final release of 2.0. As far as sucking up goes, that may be a mis-perception. For the most part, those who help here are very enthusastic about One Care but I can see that enthusiasm being misconstrued sometimes.

  The quarantine failed message and lack of good information about how to deal with items that fall into this situation is a hot topic. I remain hopeful that there will be improvements in both the message and the actions/logging in both the beta and the released 1.6.

  I understand the word "toady" and can assure you that you will find no toady's amongst the moderators. Milo, a security MVP, has stepped up to help in the forums and correctly refers people to support for problems with malware with OneCare installed. He offers alternatives for help, too. I don't consider his answers to be "toady" responses, either.
