If you are a serious Winamp user you'll be glad for scripting in Window-Eyes. If you like hearing progress indicators when a file downloads, you'll be glad for scripting in Window-Eyes. If you want Skype functionality that is on par with JFW, you'll be glad for scripting in Window-Eyes. If you want to use a hotkey to hear the name, date, or size of a file in Windows Explorer without listening through all that information, you'll be glad of scripting in Window-Eyes. If you want to use a bar code scanner to get information about the canned goods in your kitchen without laying out the money for a specialized program to help with this, you'll be glad for scripting in Window-Eyes. Are there some lingering problems with the final release of Window-Eyes left over from the latest beta, for some this seems to be the case. Is Window-Eyes 7 an unqualified disaster? Not according to the vast majority of the members of this list. I will probably go back to Dec Access 32 on my system because for whatever reason my computer just doesn't seem to like Eloquence very much using Window-Eyes. Short of sending my machine to the company, I can't see much way around this issue; not a big deal for me. I could list at least one quirky thing my computer did using Jaws that other people couldn't reproduce, but that is not why I abandoned the product. I am truly sympathetic with you if you are truly having an unpleasant experience with Window-Eyes 7. I suspect, however, that if you are having catastrophic results with Window-Eyes 7, we the list and GW Micro staff can probably help you troubleshoot the problem. I may be wrong, but I'll bet I'm not. Just my two cents worth.

WE packs upp its tinker toys and stops talking whenever I get an explorer error Outlook Express error or doctor Watson post mortem debugger error, whatever that is. If there is a workaround for the situation, I'd like to know what it is. I'm having to restart when this happens and I don't think that's anybody's solution. I do know that others are using decTalk with some success, but that is not an acceptable alternative from where I sit. Oddly enough, this started happening with greater frequency . since I loaded the final version of 7.0. All I can think to do is to start iliminating scripts one by one and see what happens. Anyone with any other suggestions? I'm open to suggestions.
