The more computers people buy the more users appear. That users just have to use computers. But in spite of my sharing all the town searching for even licensed (further more pirate) program that would self-installed on computer and began teaching the user to work with mouse and keyboard. No matter how it is easy-to-use a mouse there are people who don't know how to hold it and are afraid to break the computer. But all teaching programs are oriented to users who already knows how to use mouse and require from user to know how to install programs. But installing the product is almost the half of knowledge that an usual user must have. So it is this program that will be self-installed and begins teaching the user as soon as the disk is inserted into CD-Rom drive. The program includes several steps:

• Computer description
• Mouse using - clicks, double clicks, move
• Window using - resizing, opening, closing etc.
• Icons - Starting, moving, main concepts
• Operational System - basics

The program is written on Visual Basic 6.0, doesn't write libraries into system during self-installation and doesn't full the registry. So you may not be afraid that the program will begin to garbage your system. All required libraries are included into executing file by VbWrap program and so the program doesn't require the libraries to be installed in your system.

The project is completely sounded and doesn't make the student reading any texts. There're also video-fragments in program. But the program is interactive so that the user does some tasks to continue the course.
