Ubuntu is a very popular Linux distro. It is simple to use, and it is also very stable. Go to Ubuntu.com and download an ISO file. Make sure to choose the right ISO file for your processor. Also, download PowerISO (also free) to burn the ISO file correctly onto a CD disc. Burn the ISO file using PowerISO. Get the disc, insert it into the CD drive, and restart the computer. When it restarts, go to the boot menu, and select the CD drive to boot from CD. After Ubuntu boots, select "INSTALL." The installation wizard is very simple.
Reply:"Gaim" application is good for MSN Messenger, also icq/msn/yahoo/google-chat/jabb... and irc in the same program. Easily added from the package manager on the System menu Report It

Reply:I'd recommend Pidgin.





If you are using Ubuntu/Kubuntu get it from http://getdeb.com Report It

Reply:Pidgin usually comes installed by default on Ubuntu.


And Security tools are not nearly as critical in Linux. You already have a firewall by the way, called iptables. Report It

Reply:Ubuntu Linux is very good for personal use. u can download it from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download...
