Computer advice please

I want to install a calendar programme that has an alarm you can set for specific days, birthdays etc, I had one on my last computer but I've forgotten which one, I have searched my programme settings to see if I already have one, but apparently not! any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Outlook that comes with MS Office (as opposed to Outlook Express which is free) has a calendar.

I believe Vista has an in-built calendar.

I use google calendar, which is free. It pops up alerts for events which I can have as a one off, weekly, monthly, annually and so on on a recurrent basis.

Big advantage is being web based I can access it from any pc in the world.

Thanks for both suggestions, I will give Google a try.
