My test result for Onecare

As promised, I've complete testing Microsoft's Onecare.
First some positive points:

• This is the only product which offers all in one caring solution and does good (not earth shattering though). We are waiting for Symantec's Genesis (Codename) to come out in the market which will also be offering all possible features.
• Secondly it scores points at ease of use.
• It's a no-hassle way to combine hard-disk maintenance, file backups, and security.
• Backup process is top notch.

Now negative point:

• First, it failed to detect 14 out of 1690 file viruses on the WildList, a published list of common malware; since these viruses are publicly known, you should expect your security software to score 100 percent here.
• Secondly, among the ten security suites I looked at, OneCare received the worst score in my heuristics tests, which suggests that the program has a hard time detecting malware that it can't recognize through signature files. That said, Windows Defender is meant to be able to block an unknown piece of malware solely based on the way the file interacts with the PC. I did not test this capability, and AV-Test has no data on it.
• Defender option is given but you need to separately install that and that works for spam control but I didn't check that so far.
