John, this really should have started a new thread rather than
"hijacking" an existing one -- you've restricted your audience a lot
this way. In any event: see below for some answers.

Hello all:
My reason for sending the message that I did send was to find as many
members as possible to help me if they were able. I have been
blacklisted by Microsoft. I purchased my computer as a used computer
and paid only $200.00 for it. Microsoft wants me to pay 199.00 for
new software, which is out of the question form me financially.
In fact even if I could, I wouldn't pay that price for any new
software regardless of it source. I received the info to access the
e-page of openoffic.org from one of the techs. at my internet
provider. I guess that my questions are 1) can I get free software
from OO;
Yes, from www.openoffice.org.
2) if I can get software from OO, then how do I go about it.
If you click on the Download tab near the top of the page, the process
should be self-explanatory
3) how do I install it (I'm all thumbs when it comes to compuers),
Basically, double-click on the downloaded file and answer its questions
as appropriate. You'll find more detailed instructions from the Download
tab, under Documentation, Installation Instructions.
and finally how can I remove the pop-up that comes up regularly and
also how can I get rid of the permanent window that comes up whenever
I am online.
No idea what you mean here.
P.S. One final thing that comes to mind is that Microsoft seems to
have slowed down my server by about 33%.
Can anyone help?
Best regards,
John e. Polko.
