Free Software
 To be able to use all the free stuff offered on this site, we suggest you check to see if you CAN access and open all the free things....


   Yes, I know that many folks think that all freeware is laden with bugs, viruses or other nefarious things.
This an be true about no-name brand software, but not about ALL freeware.... After all there is no free lunch, eh? However, there are some companies who do give away helpful, legitimate titles for free. And these titles can help you access the free files for education all over the net.

   Freeware simply means that the publisher who made it is giving it away for free.
The best known example of this would be: Firefox browser, or Internet Explorer browser, Yahoo Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ Messenger and Adobe Reader (For PDF documents), etc.....

   There is also type of Freeware called "Open-ware".
Open-ware is not only free to use, it is also free to tinker with. You can make it your own, so to speak. A good example of Open-ware would be Open Office as seen below. Although you CAN tinker with it, you do not need to do so to use it as intended.

   So, this is a list of free to download and use software.
This will allow you to use all the links and downloads on our webpage. Enjoy in good health!
