    hi all, does anyone know if it will be possible to just add extra pcs to an existing subscription, without having to start again with a different live id? i am about to connect a fourth pc to my home network and wish to use onecare, but i want to see all four pcs within the same circle. if i could add a pc for a small fee rather than add another subscription would be great. as my kids get older i can see my home network extending even further and i want to monitor all pcs from the one hub. is this something that can be accomodated in future upgrades? any insight would be appreciated

    I think the ability to have more than three PCs on a subscription will be addressed but for now adding a fourth PC will require an additional subscription and will have to be monitored seperately.

    hi there,

    thanks for the reply. when you say it will be addressed, are we talking weeks, months or years?

    Perhaps "addressed" was a poor choice of words. "Discussed" would be a better word. I assume it has been discussed because having more than three computers in a One Care Circle has been requested before, both here and in the beta  test groups. Since I have no firsthand knowledge of the One Care Team's plans for future releases I can't answer when or if at all this will become a One Care feature.

    again thanks for your prompt response,

    is it possible that you can forward this question to the onecare team and see if they are able to shed any light on this issue?

    The best information I could get is that when and if this feature becomes available it will be posted on the One Care homepage - http://onecare.live.com/standard/en-us/default.htm
