use kuliax. it is also a debian 4.0 remastered...

and all is working properly :D

but if you are a windows renegate perhaps it would be better to install wine and some applications able to run both, in linux under wine, and in windows, so you can change the system

a good messenger for both ist "miranda"

a good very light email client is nPOPQ

a good high performence editor is UDP (unicode document processor with integrated data base function: you can use true type from windows in wine and write really complex documents all in unicode or not usable in linux and windows. UDP generates also HTML doc's and emails with unicode!)

a good FTP client is filezilla

good luck

oui
