One Care Error

Question
-
Hey there I am gettin an error when I try to install one care. I downloaded the trial went to install it, One Care started to check for update and I guess download them and then I get
"An error occurred during Windows Live OneCare Installation. Please contact support.
Error ID: 0044-8007064A"
What is the problem and how can I get it fixed so I can install this program on my PC. I did have anti virus program but I uninstalled it before I tried to install OneCare- Moved by JimR1Moderator Wednesday, July 15, 2009 3:56 AM (From:Windows Live OneCare Anti-Spyware)

Go to the website of the antivirus software you previously uninstalled and if there is an uninstall tool run it. Then run the One Care install cleanup tool - http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/onecareinstallandactivate/thread/399071e2-49dc-4767-932d-d261e3965943 then install One Care.

Did all that stuff and still get the same error...... I don't know what to do now, I have no anti virus protection now. Guess I can get one of those other crummy anti virus programs that offer next to nothing.Wednesday, July 15, 2009 6:22 AM
