I've had similar problems as well. There are so many things that most people take for granted about Windows. It normally means extra effort when you're using a system like linux.
Take ergonomics for example. When I used to Windows, The system ensured that I took the prescribed number of breaks from using the keyboard and mouse. This damn linux thing refuses to crash! I'm forced to work all these extra hours.
Thanks to Linux, I am forced to take breaks. Whenever I open a multi-page pdf file, it hangs into a runaway process and I am forced to reboot my computer and re-download the pdf. Windows is so boring, I simply double click on that file and it opens up without any fuss. I also find my Linux hanging when I open Firefox, OO and Thunderbird together. Windows just does not listen and opens them up side by side.
Being as clueless as you are, it's a small woder that your installs boot at all.
I never had this problem in windows. I used an interactive firewall. In linux I cannot control what goes out of my system. The firewall works one way only.
PLEEASE dont setup firewalls on linux.
Social Networking - It was so nice to have so many people working with me on the Windows box. Now I have to be content with being the only one working on my lappy and look to third party sites for meeting people.
Nope, not true in my case.
Ignorance is bliss. Way to go.
The bottom line is that windows and linux have their set of problems, so bashing Windows does not solve Linux problems.
But teaching yourself will most certainly remove your "linux" problems.
