MS OneCare (beta?)

I got an invite from MS to try their new OneCare package:

Firewall (now inbound and outbound) Virus Scanner killer, malware take down, and tune up: all in one. Sounds too good to be true, but tempting enough to give it a go.

There seems to be some disagreement as to whether this is beta-ware or not, I spotetd a number of MS sites along the way so far that are not all singing from the same song sheet.

Even worse, a number of not particularly legit looking URLs are involved. In view of that I'm ONLY trying it on my laptop, since that's completely backed up, and only has rather trivial stuff on it anyway.

I reckon they could try unifying a few things if they want to inspire complete confidence in the product from the end user's point of view.

We shall see.
