Microsoft seeks testers for anti-virus service By Ina Fried, CNET News.com June 21, 2005 URL: http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/security/soa/Microsoft-seeks-testers-for-anti-virus-service/0,130061744,139198129,00.htm
Microsoft has begun soliciting testers for OneCare Live, the company's subscription anti-virus and anti-spyware service. In an online posting seeking people to try out the service, Microsoft said that it plans to start testing by end-August. "This new service will be entering its beta testing phase in a few weeks," the company said on its OneCare Web site. A Microsoft representative was not immediately able to offer further details on the testing or say when the final service will be ready. OneCare is set to combine the anti-spyware software that Microsoft has already been publicly testing along with anti-virus and firewall software. Microsoft has not announced pricing for OneCare. Microsoft announced its plans for the service in May. The company has been testing it among Microsoft employees since then, but has said it would begin testing it with outside customers in the US summer or fall.
