Microsoft Office is a proprietary Windows (and Mac) app so no, it's not supported. On the other hand, LibreOffice is a free and open source app that can open and save to Microsoft formats so I recommend you give it a try. If you really need Microsoft Office, there are a few guides that explain how you can install it by using wine. I've not personally tried in a few years. Here's one guide but there are many others: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Microsoft_Office Avast is proprietary software but they do have a Linux version. You should probably contact Avast if you need more assistance with installing it. I believe that most Ubuntu users don't need an antivirus: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-help/net-antivirus.html Some Windows apps might work on Ubuntu Linux (or Sabily, a derivative) using Wine but in general, you're better off looking for Linux apps. I'm not familiar with the other apps but I think Sabily's goal is to include as much high quality open source Muslim software as possible without needing to install other stuff afterwards.
