    Windows Live One Care Special Offer

    I have been using Windows Live One Care Beta for 2 months. I just received a
    message from Microsoft giving me a special offer to download the ful software
    at $19.95/month. I followed the instructions (uninstalled the Beta) and
    restarted. Then when I went to the url they sent me, I can't see any area for
    the special offer.
    Any inputs?

    This is exactly what I got but when I launch it, I only see a picture of a
    man on the right, Windows Live on top, 5 links on the left (Live.com, Live
    Search, Windows Live Messenger, Windows Live Spaces and Windows Live Mail).
    Nothing else.

    Where do you see the link for the purchse of Live One Care?

    The funny think is that when I used my Blackberry to get the same link, I
    can see a link called "Go" to purchase.

    Any help?

    Just double checked and I see exactly what you see on your blackberry.You
    might try putting "www" at the beginning of the link.

    You may not see the offers if your browser has turned off PopUps.
