RE: One Care DEactivates Defender but....

As a matter of fact Defender is only an antispyware, while OneCare is both

antispyware and antivirus, so you should be better protected.

OneCare will disable your Vista copy of Windows Defender and will also

disable the Windows Firewall. It does this because OneCare has its own

version of Windows Defender and Windows Firewall. OneCare is giving you full

protection, so there is no need to worry.
