Well, none of the offered methods have worked for me. Another odd thing is that I don't see where to download the update on the site. I thought I had it but nothing happened. Is there any particular reason why, after all these versions they haven't decided to make the base version a standard Windows application? I mean, there isn't any good reason why they could not have standard menu bars is there? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don and Cher Bosch" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2009 2:08 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] How do I dismiss the Winamp Update message? > That's very interesting- especially I have never had to do that with any > previous versions.
