I recieved an email that you were going to close,late next year, Windows Live OneCare??!!!! Is this true? If it is---will you have another one we can get? OneCare works very well and I hate to see it close!! Any info will be great!

Thanks Jim Rogers

Sadly One Care service will terminate at the end of 2010. A new free product called Microsoft Security Essentials will be available later this year which will provide malware protection only.
