Hi again Jake,

Thanks for the info on spyware.

I wanted to download flash player as a plug in for opera. On the instructions it says -
4. Navigate to this directory and from the command line type ./flashplayer-installer to run the installer (Note: this can only be run from the command line). The installer will instruct you to shut down your browser(s).

When i try it this is what happens:

James@james-desktop: /flashplayer-installer
bash: /flashplayer-installer: no such file or directory

1. Could you tell me what im doing wrong please?

2.Also could you tell me a program that can play Mp3s on Linux please?

3. Now i have Linux installed and i want to install Windows on the same HDD, how will i choose which one i want to boot into?

Thanks
James.

There is a really awesome MP3 player for Linux called Rhythmbox, its an iTunes clone, and it has support for iPods. I use it.
