Thanks for the feedback. The $3 is a good price I believe, but that's only cause of a special offer going on right now. That aside though, I really didn't want to go through the hastle of having to uninstall AVG that I'm running now for example. Make sure that was all cleared out and then install this whole new security package and find out it 1, wasn't workable with jaws and 2. that it was just crappy. jaws or no jaws compatibility. Then have to go through the added hastle of reinstalling AVG and reconfiguring etc. I've also got a2squared antispyware running and it seems to work quite well, but it's not the most jaws friendly program around and often I end up needing my sighted wife's help for executing this or that command or reading whatever message. That's why I was interested in webroot to see if it would be something I'd have more control over.

I think for the money that AVAST Pro is the best. Its Jaws friendly and seems to catch everything and doesn't bog down the system. There is also a free version for home use and is quite good, but for the most protection I would go Pro. and ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike & Barbara" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 25, 2009 2:48 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] webroot internet security essencialscompatibilitywith jfw? > Hi Cristobal, > > I am running XP/SP3 Home, IE7, & Jaws 8, 9, & 10 latest.
