If you can run Java, then you can run this program - and it's Free.
http://www.arch.apana.org.au/ben_s/RosettaStone.html

The same web site also a nice study on Hebrew word utilization
http://www.arch.apana.org.au/ben_s/HtmlSupport/WebPage/frequency_analysis.ht
ml
and also a simple and free online Hebrew tutorial
http://www.arch.apana.org.au/ben_s/OnlineHebrewTutorial.html .

NOTE: This Java program is called RosettaStone and is NOT at all related to
Rosetta Stone from Fairfield Language Technologies.  However, I just got the
Rosetta stone from Fairfield and I really like it.  It uses a non-rule
intuitive approach.
Their web site is http://www.trstone.com (where tr stands for "The
Rosetta").
It "ain't" cheap - but Level I has something like 97 modules.  Level II is
also available for Hebrew.  I hope to add this product to my web site in the
near future.
The same program runs with about 12 major languages, sold separately.
For you polyglots, you can get a demo CD for something like $19.
