In particular:

OneCare now scans files received in MSN Messenger and enables users to
scan files and folders for viruses by clicking the right mouse button,
according to an e-mail Microsoft sent to testers.

And..

Also, the software now enables users to make backups to external hard
drives and it is integrated with Microsoft Update for software fixes and
feature updates, the company said in the e-mail. Additionally, it has
improved the "help" feature; OneCare now assists users in the removal of
products that conflict with it, Microsoft's e-mail said.
