switch to linux if you can

many of your favorite windows programs have linux versions too (firefox, 
thunderbird, etc)

there are alternatives for almost everything else you run on windows

you can use wine to run (a very large minority of) windows programs with 
no problems, over time linux's alternatives will get better and better 
and you won't need to run wine

you will need windows less and less as time goes on

eventually, ultimately, by the end of time, nobody will need windows for 
anything

try downloading a livecd/livedvd/liveusb. no installation is required and 
you can still access your windows hard disk and files.
