Want Free Movie Maker Software.

[Geek-9pm]

I have Windows Movie Maker on two XP Pro machines. Some AVI files can not be imported into the Movie Maker.Tried it on two machines.  My workaround is to convert the files to another format and then edit. I don't like this.

So, what I want is a better editor than the one that comes with Windows. And if it is free, so much the better. I have been burnt out on pay-for programs that are "Professional" and I can not understand how they work. Must be that I am no longer "Professional" enough to use them.

So, by question is:
Where is there a good free video editor that will do  AVI?[i

Please!        Any ideas? { Even your sarcasm! }

"List of video editing software" must be the best reference on wikipedia. Thank you for that find. Very informative.
