MicroSoft has a free reader for PowerPoint files. I downloaded it several months ago, but have yet to use it. Sorry, I don't remember the URL to get the download, but a search on Google ought to be able to locate it. (A friend had in the past sent me ppt files which I couldn't read, but she hasn't sent me any since I've had the reader.)
