while is working it doesn't consume all my resources allowing me to work, listen to my music, make phone calls with no interuption.
onecare is so much better than any of the other firewalls/antiviruses i have tryed before.
thanks

- Switch from Norton to MS
If you are looking for a product to overcome Norton's resource-heavy NAV, this will work for you as an all-in-one solution. We have a 2.8GHz hyper-threading PC with 1.5GB of RAM. No issues. Simple installation. 'nuff said!

- Simple, reliable, cheap protection
OneCare is an all in one protection suite that effectively works with my PC. I find this product, coupled with Windows Vista, one of the most secure combinations in the market nowadays.
OneCare will hardly bother you at all with messages of any kind, unless strictly needed. Evenmore, it works in the background without you even noticing it and without overloading the CPU, like typical security suites from Norton or McAfee.
Two big thums up!
