Hello grenadian4life, in my opinion, the best way to do this is to uninstall One Care, run the install cleanup tool - http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsOneCare/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=828910&SiteID=2 then install the One Care free trial - http://onecare.live.com/standard/en-us/3/default.htm
After the trial is installed, open it and select "Subscribe". When asked for a Live ID enter the Live ID you wish to use or create a new one, then continue to complete the purchase.
