For some reason i wanted to learn chinese today and like some1 has said.. if u want to type/read chinese u dont need any software.. its built into windows xp and vista.. if u just press F1 on ur desktop and search for languages.. u will find out how to install it. also.. i found some free software on the next which i am about to try that will help u learn chinese.. i am not sure if am aload to post links so i wont post it.. but if u just google learn chinese and look through the list of a site u will see it.
^ Ditto with the above. Microsoft has built in INPUT METHOD EDITORS (IME), which allows you to type Chinese using different methods such as Pinyin, Quick Method, 9Fong, ... Pretty convenient and easy if you want to learn Chinese, you can download DLTool, a tool where everything copied to the Clipboard, is translated to English, along with Mandarin Pinyin. http://dltool.sourceforge.net/
