For some people a replacement for MSWindows is Linux. There are several 
distributions (kind of like several makers of cars) which you can download 
for free. A good way to test is to try the one from knoppix.org. If you like 
it then you can install it or another version. My own preference is the one 
from opensuse.org.

On Linux there is no virus problem. Using Firefox will prevent many spyway 
problems.

This mailing list is really only for OpenOffice.org questions. For the 
majority of users OpenOffice.org is a replacement for MSOffice.

Please ask your local Linux Users Group for more linux help.
