Two applications I use pretty often which aren't on that list are IrfanView and Malwarebytes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think she'd need Irfan View if I can get her something really simple on the image editing front. I doubt she'd fire up more than two apps for pics. I'm really only expecting her to rescue photographs, and although the Windows image viewer seems to go out of its way to stop you from using the pic, I think it will get her by.
What can she get from Malwarebytes that she doesn't get from AVG and the native tools? Again, she's not technical, and she's also skint. So freeware and few apps is her best bet.

Both are freeware.
I couldn't say whether Malwarebytes is better or worse than than AVG, it's just what I have, and I've found it easy to use.

Oh, I see. I didn't realise there was a lower-featured free version. Assuming that those extras aren't something to miss?

What would be the easiest way to save certain voicemails on our house phone permanently?

Get a recording device and tape it when it plays on speakerphone.

Thanks, Le Nubian. I think we have a tape recorder somewhere, but I was hoping for better sound quality than that will produce without having to buy new equipment. Like a way to transfer it directly to my computer.

You can probably also record it on a cellphone or a microphone connected to your computer. Not many home phones will have outputs that go directly into a computer, but without knowing what sort you have, it's impossible to say.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Thanks, ita. I'll look into that when I get home and am near the actual phone.

Yeah. Provide more details. You might be able to do a 3-way call to google voice and record too.
