3. Replacement for windows media player for watching DVDs
mplayer.


4. Macromedia Flash paper generation
tough one.


5. Good VPN program -- that's easy to config -- GUI is ideal -- Ive
played with this some and had some suggestions, but haven't been able to
get it to work right yet -- a comprehensive HOW-TO would be sweet if
anyone knows of one.
