Winmodem on linux? You are joking of course. The clue is in the title. Some work but most don't. Bin the cheapo piece of rubbish and get a proper modem.
Linux Forums are full of people who try to get this sort of duff tripe to work. It is well documented that these modems are half modem half software.
Any file/operating system is going to look cryptic and confusing at first. The trick is to start as a noob all over again, hurts the pride a bit, but other OS's do a lot of puppy walking for you. Linux doesn't. If you want that try Linspire/ freespire. (bloated and heavy but noob friendly).
Either that or just get a Mac and be done with it.
