It should work just fine. Tuesday, December 1, AM. Ken, Did you ever find out what's up with error code 0x0cc03? I was wondering if it was connected to the error code. If you can help I'd appreciate it. If not have a great ! Saturday, January 9, PM. Ken, Sorry I just found your answer. I am somewhat computer illiterate so I will try to figure it out. I also noticed your question and answer were from October. Sorry my mind must be elsewhere. Thanks Kat I looked on the Onecare forum and thay say will not ron on 64 bit if this is so then why dont thay say on the Onecare main page over the download button.

Monday, January 25, PM. Wish they had that info on the main page I have an X64 build of Win 7 Home Premium, and that would have saved me some time!

Sunday, January 31, AM. Sunday, February 14, AM. I have a new computer Sony Vaio with windows 7. I wanted today to try the scanner and I also get the errorcode 0x0CC03 I understand that this problem has been going back to Oct 09 as indicated in this forum? Why haven't Microsoft fixed this? I've tried the steps they sugest. With the add-ons ect.. My computer is completely new, so it can't be a problem here Best regards Christina The most common cause of error code 0x0CC03 right now is due to the safety scanner not being developed to run under 64 bit operations as discovered by PGB Right now the site is being kept up as a peer-to-peer forum.

We do what we can with what MS left behind. If there is a system sized error, like what started thread, MS will fix it but day-to-day operations are ignored.

I also wish MS would fix the opening page to include the problem with 64 bit as well as the other problem - Not to use the Registry cleanup scan. We do not recommend running any Registry cleaner because it is un-necessary and can damage your computer.

In fact we are in the middle of a confrontation with the makers of RegCure and MS. For those of us that use it it digs deeper than other scanners. For those who are 64 bit Ops here is a list of Other Online Scanners 1. Thursday, March 18, PM. It just stalls for me. Seems like it's not meant for x64, as people are saying here and on their forums. Thursday, April 1, PM. Friday, April 2, AM. I realize that this is seriously out of date but the record needs to be set straight.

Thereafter Microsoft left everyone hanging. The site is run as peer-to-peer with no intervention from MS, except for system wide problems.

Friday, April 2, PM. Monday, April 5, PM. You negelect to mention whether 32 or 64 bit OS. Wednesday, April 7, PM. Friday, April 16, PM. Amen to being in that ninety five percentile. I see alot of people who are saying they're having problems are on IE7. Saturday, September 25, PM. Try this to fix the problems with "windows live safety scanner": Control panel, uninstall programs, uninstall "windows live safety scanner" if its installed , reboot, now open up internet explorer "32BIT", now go to the "windows live safety scanner" website and run the program.

Tuesday, October 12, AM. Thursday, October 21, AM. Saturday, October 23, AM. I'm a newbie and I too have encountered the "loop" and error code 0x0CC Saturday, October 23, PM. Mitch in Florida. Wednesday, November 10, PM. These are the operating systems on the machines in my office and I just tried it on 6 of the 15 boxes and they all give error 0x0cc03 Mitch.

Thursday, November 11, AM. So try a scan with your on board software immediately before trying LOCS - jo. Wednesday, November 17, PM. I thought it was gonna finally going to work I did everything they said to do,I see it downloading and thought it was gonna work but kept getting install scanner after I hit the Launch scanner button. At least I dont get that damn error code I hade for awhile. Good Luck. Im giving up on that crappy Live one Scanner it just makes me mad and is a waste of time.

Thursday, January 27, PM. I've had this problem in the past - intermittantly. And i'm having it now. And just like in the past, there is still no solution. I just found this forum and I just can't believe that this problem has been around for more than 3 years.

Why even offer the service if they're not going to stand by it. Please allow the scan to complete successfully. Click Start and type msconfig in the Start Search box and then click Msconfig. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
