help with new ubuntu

hi,
i have had it with windows. i downloaded ubuntu desktop edition on my c drive. i downloaded it on windows. when starting, it asks me if i want to start windows or ubuntu.
i have a question? when booting and installing for the first time it got to 63 percent and stayed there till i unplugged power and removed battery from laptop.
also, will ubuntu now be a totally separate os from windows. if my windows is infected with malware etc, will it affect ubuntu?
also my friend had difficulty connecting to net on his ubuntu. how do i connect to a wireless connection on ubuntu?
plz explain like ur talking to someone with lower than average iq. thank u.
