    www.openoffice.org will do similiar things and is free.

    MS also provide readers so you can open Excel files on your PC.

    You won't get Excel for free legaly.

    Err, no. You can download alternatives such as Open Office for example though which would include a word processor. Or use the online document creation tools from Google. Also free.

    It's illegal to use pirated software and you wont get any help with that here. Since this is your first post I wont ban you. Instead I'd suggest you try openoffice.

    Looks like OO.o is becoming way too popular - I feel obliged to suggest AbiWord at this point :D

    General rule of thumb, if you have to specify that you want a product that usually costs money for free, its probably wrong to do so.

    SexyRedzGirl, keep an open mind, as stated, Open Office will output a Word compatible .doc file format. The only thing different is the user interface.

    to be fair, he didnt ask for pirate material, he asked if it was possible to get it for free.
