How to Download and Install the FREE Google
Pack
We have been preaching for
a long time that there is no such thing as a free lunch on the Internet, and that
everything has a cost - even if it appears to be free. We may have found the exception
to the rule in Google's Pack of essential PC Software. The "Google Pack"
is a bundle of free PC software that has been assembled by Google and certified
safe for your PC.
When you download and install the Google Pack you get
the following:
- Google Earth - Tour the world from a satellite's
point of view. Zoom in to street level!
- Picasa Photo Organizer - Find, edit, and share your photos in seconds
- Photo Screensaver -
Enjoy photos from your personal collection
- Google Desktop - Find
all your email, files, web history, and more
- Google Toolbar - Search
from any web page and autofill forms
- Mozilla Firefox - Browse the
web quickly and securely
- Lavasoft's AdAware - Safely detect and
remove spyware
- Acrobat Reader 7 - View, print, and search PDF files
- Norton
Antivirus 2005 - Protect your PC from viruses, worms and Trojan horses (6
month subscription!)
All of this software is recommended by Google
and Schrock Innovations to keep your PC healthy, fun, and entertaining! Downloading
this treasure trove of FREE software is easy, but may take some tie depending
on your internet connection. High-speed users expect to spend about 5 minutes
on the download and dial-up users block off about an hour. To download and install
the FREE Google Pack of Essential Software for your PC, follow the directions
below!
- Click on the button on the right to begin the Google Pack download
process.

Pack" button.

second box will appear. Click on "Run" again.
- The download process
will now begin. The Google Pack will download any of the above applications that

the Google Pack's download process in the window as it downloads and installs
each application. It is important that you do not interrupt the process!
