Brief Summary: The purposes of this study:

* To evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of pneumococcal vaccine GSK1024850A in HIV infected infants, HIV exposed uninfected infants and HIV unexposed uninfected infants following a 3-dose primary vaccination at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age and following booster vaccination at 9-10 months of age.

* To evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of pneumococcal vaccine GSK1024850A in HIV unexposed uninfected infants receiving either a 3-dose primary vaccination according to the EPI vaccination schedule at 6, 10 and 14 weeks of age with or without booster vaccination at 9-10 months of age or a 2-dose primary vaccination at 6 and 14 weeks of age followed by booster vaccination at 9-10 months of age.
