Software Suggestions

Below are a few suggested softare applications for use by UL Lafayette faculty, staff and students.  

  • A word processing software program, such as Microsoft Word, or the free OpenOffice

  • A web browser, such as Firefox 3.0 or greater (preferred browser)

  • Current anti-virus software with up-to-date virus definitions

  • Multimedia plug-ins, such as Flash Player, Quicktime, or Windows Media Player may be required to allow your browser to access online video or interactive features. All plug-ins are available as a free download from the plug-in manufacturer’s Web sites.

  • Browser-based software, such as JavaScript and ActiveX controls, will need to be "allowed" to ensure some interactive software functions properly. Check your browser's "Preferences" or "Tools" settings for more information.
