An alternative suggestion, if your hardware will allow it, run Linux
in a virtual machine.  I recommend installing Virtual Box under
Windows and then installing several Linux distros in different VMs.
That will give you three things:

1) a real Linux environment in which you can work
2) network access
3) a protected environment which won't break your windows.
