Step 2
Finding What to Download

This is the only step where we really can't take you step-by-step. There are way too many downloadable files on the Internet for ANYONE to list entirely, so, the only thing that we can do is recommend to you some of the most popular places to download software are. Here is a brief list of them:

All of these sites basically function similarly. They are all very organized, and carry a whole ton of different selections. Again, I can't take you step-by-step on this one because all of these sites have different methods of downloading the files.

Before you move that mouse cursor over that download link, read on to step 2 to find out what to do first!
