Questions from a windows user before turning to Linux:
I’ve installed and tried many distros before. But this time I wanna turn full-linux user. So here are my questions, to save your time.
I need free alternatives for:
1- Internet download manager. Preferably one that opens up a pop-up bar to download videos when captured.
2- Goldwave or a cool sound recorder software.
3- Any Video Converter/Format Factory.
4- Daemon Tools.
5- ZoneAlarm (Or other free alternatives, same degree of ease of use).
6- CCleaner or the like.
7- WinRaR.
If you have any comments or explanations, Please feel free to explain to me If there’s something I don’t understand about the mentality of Linux; the system itself.

Izzy, It's guys like you who make people love linux!
Thanks a lot for your reply
I've doing a little research myself too. And asked the question on many other forums. But none were as much useful as your answer was!
And I will follow your advice. I just felt it will be really difficult to know about these specific programs so I felt like asking directly about them.
Thanks again man0 -

I'm not a techie at all. I changed from Win XP to Lubuntu and that's Linux, right? I have a Canon digital camera and need the Linux software to run the it.0

Yes, Lubuntu is a variant of Linux. As for your Canon Digital Camera, if you cannot access the camera by connecting it to a usb on lubuntu, have a look at this site.

Then research darktable as it seems to be a go-to for modern digital cameras.

Thanks. I'll try your suggestions but they look a bit above me.
Meanwhile, is there a way of using my digital camera software for windows but with wine software? Emulator?0
