This is waaaaay off topic but I know lots of you eBayOutlookers know the Windows world a lot better than I do. I have MacSolitaire on my Mac and it fills some of small empty spaces in my computer day. My sister who has a Windows system (not sure the version but a few years old) wants a solitaire program. She is leery about downloading shareware or freeware from unknown sources. Can you recommend a free or cheap solitaire game for Windows that is safe to download?
Thanks -----o----o----o----o----o----o----o----o

I think it's already there. Click on the "start" menu and then "all programs"; a list of things should appear in alphabetical order - click on "Games" and SOLITAIRE is one of the pre-loaded games available.
Here's what it looks like on my pc:

Neglus, I asked her that and she said no. I know the Windows systems I had when I was working always had one.

Can she do an Explorer Search all files and folders for "solitaire" and see if it comes up?

She found it! Neglus thank you for giving a clear path. I thought it was there but it has been years since I used Windows and did not remember how to find it.
Thanks all who responded. -----o----o----o----o----o----o----o----o
