You can get 3.6.10, but I was just giving him the easiest option, as it's included in the launcher.

Well, I don't think it's the fact that you are on windows.  I am on a mac, and I had no trouble using turey's installer and going.  However, I was on IRC the other day with someone who was having trouble getting started with Windows (though that may have been partially because we were all giving conflicting advice at times :nervous:).  Anyway, I've found that installing things on windoze can be extremely frustrating.  I have another IRC story about someone who spent 6 hours trying to install M$'s developer tools, but failed because the installer was more or less retarded.  But let's not turn this into another Mac vs PC war...

 
Oh no I'd NEVER want to start a PC vs Mac war, Epically since if windows' next great grand and glorious O/S is as good as the last O/S (vista) I'll be a hard core linux person.
As far as Mac's and Pc's, I've seen some people that swear by Mac, and some that swear by Pc, so both are equal as far as I'm concerned, so no war here :)
now Linux, that's another story altogether, I have a spare Hdd laying around that I installed kubantu on and I like that better than Mac of PC except that finding stuff that runs on Linux that I'm used to using is really hard at times.

Well with Wine it's getting better, but there are good alternate programs for Linux, in some cases better than for Windows and Mac. And from what I can see, there are as many or more programs for Linux as for Mac.

I couldn't find the ones I wanted for Kubantu, I need some sort of winamp, and a flash player so I can watch youtube video's. I like the Linux distro, just right now I'm addicted to windows.

VLC is a flash player, and Amarok is a pretty good WinAmp.

I couldn't get VLC to work in Kubantu

1. It's Kubuntu.
2. You should be able to install it with Adept.
3. (directed more towards cole) Does VLC work as a Flash plugin? wolfen seemed to be more concerned about watching Youtube videos, which, at least according to my current level of wise, requires a Flash plugin.

You can download Flash Player for Linux. I'm just a novice, but I got the basics to work. You have to download the tar.gz version of FlashPlayer, the command line version, because the others don't work. Open it with the Terminal, and follow the prompts.

As for VLC, http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html

Actually I want to make Kubantu run as good as windows xp or mac Leopard

He means with the same functionality/ease of use. Man, Ubarntu is cool. However, I'm liking Linux Mint. I only used the CD, but it's pretty cool.

Yeah, I understood that part, but failed to see the connection between what he quoted and what he typed.

I ain't touching Linux until it will automatically detect my mp3 player. Though the last time I tried, I was rather surprised that Kubuntu actually detected my integrated Bluetooth adapter immediately.

Just set it as a mass storage device and use it as a drive, ergo download songs manually.
