Can anyone recommend a program that will calculate the motions of
asteroids, say three of them at most, which is fairly simple in that
it takes into account only the Sun's gravitational attraction, and
that of the asteroids - ignoring planetary perturbations. Also, don't
believe my computer will support Java- as I understand, Windows does
not.

Java is supported on versions of Windows back to XP, and also some
versions of Windows 2000.

Free download (you want the JRE) from
