Microsoft has opened the Windows OneCare Beta up to General Testers today. I've been using Windows OneCare for quite some time and its a fantastic program. Head on over the the Windows Live Ideas page to sign up or click here to go to the Windows OneCare Live page and sign up there!

Expect Windows OneCare to support Antispyware detection in the near future. From what it looks like, Microsoft intends to embed most of Windows OneCare's features into Windows Vista in late 2006 but their plans could change and we could see Windows OneCare for Vista later this year. I'm betting it will be built in like Windows Defender will be for Vista.
