Sure you can use mysql as an alternate database.
Here is the link to download it http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/
Additionally go ahead and download MySQL Workbennch as well so you don't have to use the command prompt.

Also there is Open Office, you can use base, the MS Access equivalent and connect to that.http://www.openoffice.org/

Also I am curious why are you using a Microsoft Works database file? WDB is usually associated with that application.
