Windows Live OneCare 2.0 beta almost here | |
|
||
| Time: 00:01 EST/05:01 GMT | News Source: LiveSide | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

In an email sent to Windows Live OneCare testers, Microsoft confirmed the imminent start of the OneCare 2.0 beta program. Designated as a "pre-premiere", OneCare 2.0 will not be available as a public beta initially. New features we should be seeing include:
The ability to backup online is a feature we've been talking about for a while, as a potentially key part of storage in the cloud. Windows Live Folders is currently set at 500MB, but if 10GB is what is being offered for OneCare Photo backups, a significant increase for the final version seems more than likely. |

It would be nice if the OneCare and Windows Home Server team would get on the same page. Home Server does an excellent job with backups and printer sharing so leave that to them. OneCare should be about security and maintainence taks on the client side, ie anti-virus, anti-spyware, update management, etc. and security of the network as a whole.
Now if the hub PC discussed here could be the Home Server and the information intergrated into the Home Server console and health system I would be sold in a minute. As it stands right now I need to look after each client seperately. It would be nice to be notified if a system scan has not run in the last X days and be able to remotely tell the system to manually run a scan now. It would also be nice to only have to download Windows and OneCare updates once on the hub pc and have the other computers pull them from there, sort of a dumbed down WSUS for home. |

| I would be interested in knowing what the explicit benefit of a 64-bit AV would be. One would think an application wouldn't require the memory limits but who knows. I've heard in the past that 32-bit apps can't view into the c:\windows\syswow64 folders but Kaspersky can, for example... |
