Free Software

I thought this might get your attention and yes, it is true there is free software coming your way. If you want applications that offer you word processing, spreadsheets, multimedia presentations, vector drawing tool, database facility or just anti-virus and firewall you are in the right place. These are brought to your attention without any recommendations by brill.info.

Open Office

'Openoffice' will give you most of the above and you can find this at www.openoffice.org

For free anti-virus and anti-spyware you can find both of these from AVG by going to www.free.grisoft.com

Another anti-spyware facility is ad-aware by Lavasoft and you will find details about this at http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

If you go to www.zonelabs.com you will be able to download a free firewall

Do you want an alternative browser to IE? If so, you might like to try mozilla firefox which you can download at www.mozilla.com

In addition, an alternative email application is also offered by mozilla. It is called thunderbird and you will find it at www.mozilla.com

Needless to say brill.info cannot accept any liability for any conflicts this software may cause to your system and it is solely your decision and responsibility should you download applications from any sites. brill.info would strongly recommend that you check any software for viruses and spyware prior to installing.
