Hi All, Below is the reply about MWB 3.0 being accessible from MWB tech support, & my reply back to them.
*** Lisa replied: Hello again Mike, I just tried Malwarebytes version 3.0.6 with Jaws version 17.0 and it is working much better than Malwarebytes 2.2 version ever did. You might want to install it and try it for yourself. One warning - Jaws says 'to switch pages, press Control Tab'. You do not need to press the Control button, just press the Tab button. Pressing the Control button and the Tab button does nothing. Please let me know the shortcomings you are finding with the program. Best regards, Lisa Malwarebytes Customer Service ***My Reply: Hi Lisa, Navigating MWB 3.0 is not the problem, but what is meant by being accessible is doing tasks like scheduling a scan or updates, reading scan results, telling MWB to exclude files / folders, or removing an item from quarantine, and telling it to exclude certain items when scanning, for some examples. Like I say navigation is no problem for some, but it is for others, but that is always going to be the case because there is such a vast difference of skill sets amongst screenreader users. It's the accessibility that's the issue, & that's where only the more skilled / advanced users are having some success, where the less skilled users, which is most of the screenreader users, are having problems, so they are still using the more accessible version of MWB 1.75. I know different people are going to have definitions for being able to navigate a program, & a program being accessible, but anytime I have to work at using a program verses the program working for me, is when I consider it not accessible for most users. I'm not the most skilled user, but I can get a lot of programs figured out, & this is how I determine how accessible a program is verses being able to navigate it. I as well as several hundred Jaws users are very thankful that you're taking the time, & actually using Jaws to test the program to make it a more accessible program for the blind community because too many other program creators just don't give a damn about us! So, thank you thank you very very much for your help! Take care. Mike Sent from my iBarstool. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
