Interestingly, you have to use narator to do this. I just did it on my system. Just thought I'd let you know.
SA&G :>I don't know if this helps, but try turning off fast user switching in :> user accounts. To do this: :> 1. Open Control Panel. :> 2. Press enter on User Accounts. What looks like a web page will :> appear :> that will allow you to control user accounts stored on your computer. :> 3. Press enter on the link titled, "change the way users log on or :> off" :> 4. Uncheck "use fast user switching", which I think is the second :> check :> box on the page. :> 5. Activate the apply button. :> I believe that screen readers seems to have issues with the fast user :> switching feature, hence this is why I recommend you turn it off. :> Hope this helps. :> On Thu, 14 Jun 2007 10:24:27 +0200, "Mukthar Khan" :> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: :>> Hi Christopher and all, :>> :>> Thanks alot for the feedback regarding the password protect :>> screensaver issue,.
