If you can find it, there is a free (!) powerpoint viewer from Microsoft,
along with word and excel viewers.  They are a bit old, and may not support
the latest formats - they may not even still be available.  But they are
very much faster than the real MS Office programs, and don't support macro
viruses.

Of course, you can always use Open Office for PowerPoint files.
