If Microsoft really wanted to make a splash with the upcoming international rollout of its Live OneCare antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall and PC tune-up product, it might have picked a bad day to do it. The new version of Live OneCare will ship on Jan. 30, which happens to be the same day Microsoft starts selling Windows Vista, its heavily-hyped new operating system. That means Live OneCare’s international debut might end up a footnote, or not mentioned at all, in most coverage.
