    I am using Avant browser and internet explorer, but neither will let me view powerpoint. It reads it like an unknown file until i save it. I can view word docs in my browser but not powerpoint? Is there a site I can download the plugin? I am uing MS office XP with Frontpage, and it is fully installed.

    It should if you are using IE as a browser. I use IE6 and Firefox. You could always check out MS Knowledgedge Base if you run into snags.

    I don't think that viewing a ppt file in Web browser is applicable unless you save your slide shows as Web pages in PowerPoint.

    You may read my article about "PowerPoint to the Web" to see if there's something helpful for you:
