Raxco Software Offers Special Trade-Up Options for Microsoft’s Windows Live OneCare Users

New Fully Automated All-In-One Suite Provides Feature and Pricing Advantages Over Microsoft’s Offering

GAITHERSBURG, MD – July 21, 2009 – Raxco Software, the leader in PC performance software, today announced special trade-up pricing to PerfectSpeed for users of Microsoft’s Windows Live OneCare. PerfectSpeed, the industry’s first automated utility suite that includes a certified disk defragmenter, registry cleaner, duplicate file remover and advanced privacy protection, was released today to rave reviews from thousands of beta testers, and is also available for Windows 7 users.

PerfectSpeed provides capabilities above and beyond that of Windows Live OneCare, and with its licensing model, does not require an annual subscription fee to users. By providing verification of their Live OneCare purchase at a special web site, Windows Live OneCare users can receive special discounted pricing. This special pricing recognizes that, while PerfectSpeed provides significant additional functionality than OneCare, users have made an investment in this type of solution.

“PerfectSpeed’s intuitive and easy-to-use interface for a full set of PC performance and privacy protection capabilities is a first for the industry,” said John Dean, Microsoft MVP for the Tablet PC and IT director for Network Specialists. “This is the perfect tool to help novice and average computer users keep their systems at peak performance without having to become a PC expert. It’s the perfect replacement for the discontinued Windows Live OneCare, and really a step up and better value.”

“I love it,” said Kent Wilber, one of thousands of PerfectSpeed beta testers. “I had been looking for a replacement for Windows OneCare, and PerfectSpeed has everything I was looking for and more. Its automation makes it basically effortless. And the fact that it includes a safe registry cleaner, duplicate file remover and privacy eraser was a pleasant surprise and great bonus that will save me time and money, since I won’t need separate tools for those tasks.”

“Legions of Windows Live OneCare users are looking for a replacement to keep their PCs in top shape, and they want that solution to be all encompassing and from a vendor they can trust,” said Joe Abusamra, vice president of operations at Raxco Software. “With our very special pricing for OneCare Live users, the decision to purchase PerfectSpeed is really a no brainer.”

PerfectSpeed’s special pricing for Windows Live OneCare users is $9.99 for a single license, $19.99 for a 3-user license, and $29.99 for a family license that covers all PCs in a household. This is discounted off the regular pricing of $29.99 for a single user, $59.99 for a 3-user license and $99.99 for a family license.
