    Live one care wants me to uninstall McAfee, this is the virus scan that Msn with Qwest has set up for me to use, if I delete this will it in any way affect my other computers that are being protected.  During the install of my updated dsl there was nothing about using a different virus scan.

    You cannot run both McAfee and OneCare on the same machine. If you have a subscription to McAfee, it will not affect the status of McAfee on any other PCs if you remove it from one (although I suspect that your license may have been for a single PC only...)

    In any event, if you wish to use OneCare as it is being offered to you by Qwest, you will need to remove McAfee. Be sure to activate your OneCare subscription with your Qwest LiveID per the instructions on their download page or you will need to pay for a subscription as full retail.
