Anti Virus on XP

I try to install Panda on XP and I am told to uninstall One Care, which I
have
already done. What do I do next? Is One Care hiding an entry somewhere in
registry??
Sh*t.

This didn't help too much since nobody shared the answer. I think I stumbled
on it before.
Sh*t. Do you know the procedure to get rid of the traces?

Did you use the final link in the conversation?
http://support.microsoft.com/oas/def...n=en-us&sd=win
.... and report the issue?

The best people to help you are those who support the application. Getting
the cleanup utility and chatting with the MS tech support is probably your
best bet at finding a solution. Then you can come back here and post the
details so others might not end up with the same issue and no answer.

Sh*t.

I'm just going to buy a different anti virus. It's not worth all this for
twenty bucks or so.
Frustrated, -Pete

Not here?????????????

Hi Pete,
I understand your frustration, Panada is the best Anti-virus out there now
untill they start make a lot of Bucks££££ and you know it start screw up!.
The only thing is I don't like it about them is they don't like their
Product installed with others!!!.
I had it before and it didn't install unless I uninstall Spybot S&D? and
clean it from the Windows Explorwer and the Registry.
Open the registry and Right click any HKEY and select *find* from the drop
down list and type wins OneCare and delete ( be warrned back up your Registry
before deleting anything as always you can revert back from the Backup copy ).
When finished Reboot and try to install *Panada* and I think you could after
this install OneCare or other Anti-spyware if wish.
HTH.
Please let us know your progress.
Regards,
nass

Microsoft gave me this answer and it worked!!!!!!!!! Here it is for the
benefit of others:

"From your description, I understand that after removing Windows Live
OneCare, Panda cannot be installed onto the system, indicating OneCare is
still installed. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. This issue is caused by
certain Windows Live OneCare registry keys that remaining in the system. I
suggest we perform the following steps to delete them manually:

1. Restart your computer.

2. Click Start, click Run, type "regedit" (without quotation marks) in the
Open box, and then click OK.

3. In the left pane, expand to the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MalwareProte ction

Note: if the registry cannot be found, please go ahead to install Panda
again and check the result.

4. Right click on "MalwareProtection" and choose Permissions.

5. Select "Administrators" from the list and then check "Allow" next to the
"Full Control" entry.

6. Click OK. Right click on "MalwareProtection" and choose Delete.

7. Restart your computer and install Panda again."
