As you may have read, the Beta release of Windows Live OneCare 2.5 is now available on Microsoft Connect for folks to start testing. I of course went ahead and installed Windows Live OneCare 2.5 to give it a spin myself. So what's new with Windows Live OneCare 2.5? After installing the Beta myself, I didn't notice anything different over the non-Beta version. I decided to ping the Windows Live OneCare team to see what we can expect with Windows Live OneCare 2.5. They tell me that the Windows Live OneCare 2.5 release is mainly what they call an "under-the-hood" release. That means that we won't see any big  new features like the great OneCare Circle introduced in 2.0.  Going forward with the Windows Live OneCare 2.5 Beta - continue to expect the improvements and changes to remain "under-the-hood" and not very noticeable in the UI.

In testing the Windows Live OneCare 2.5 Beta, I noticed after installing it on one of my PCs and signing in with my Windows Live ID that contains my OneCare Subscription - it was not displaying my OneCare Circle. This was because

I have a quick update for you about Windows Vista SP1. The Microsoft Update Blog contains some important information about updates to the SP1 prerequisite distribution plan. Starting tomorrow, we are resuming the automatic update and installation of the Servicing Stack Update.

In mid-April, we will begin distributing SP1 (in the first 5 languages) using the Automatic Update system.  We have a lot of Windows users, so not everyone will get it on the same day.  In fact, it will go to a small percentage of Windows Vista users each day. The exact timing of when you will receive it depends on when your PC is ready for Windows Vista SP1.

In addition to starting the automatic delivery of the first 5 languages, I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you that also we're on track for the initial release of SP1 in the remaining languages in mid-April.

Service Pack 1 for Vista was released a few weeks ago. For now, it is an optional update. Beginning mid April, SP1 will start automatically downloading to PCs - Only on machines that have automatic updates turned on. Not to fear, it will download but not install automatically.

If you are not familiar with the new layout of Automatic updates, you can see if it is available for downloading by opening Internet Explorer, click on tools, then Automatic updates. It will bring up the Automatic Update application. Click on the link that says "View Available Updates"

If SP1 is available, it will look something like this:



If you want to try it out now, but you still do not see it in your list of optional updates there are a few things you need to check:

-You have a pre-release version of Vista. If you do, you need to uninstall windows, and install a fresh full release.

-You already have it. To check, simply go to the start menu, and right click on computer and go to properties

-SP1 is only available in these...
