Ed has a point. To suggest that he doesn't is almost like telling me that my suggestion is worthless. And when I was discussing this, I was not refering to an emergency removal tool for Window-Eyes. I was refering to a shortcut labled something like "Uninstall Window-Eyes" that would then launch the uninstalation process. I too, agree that the emergency removal tool should only be used for such access, just an emergency situation. That's my belief, personally. Jim: continueing on at this point, I think hearing from GW Micro staff personally on this suggestion being worthless would be a much better idea. Only make a statement about my suggestion when you have thought it through properly. You are obviously not considering every point possible and only consider it as "pointless." Thanks
