Oh that's fine. If you can't host the software just post the link.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the info, I'll give it a look. I will have to have a look at the license to see if it is freely distributable. I have shyed away from hosting security software on the blind-computing site, because some of the packages have become large, and with changes many good ones have become unusable with Jaws. I may however, post a link for it, so others can easily locate it. Richard Q.

I've been trying Privatefirwall from www.privacyware.com. It uses a web interface which seems to work well with JAWS. The system tray icon and the context menus also work. So do the alerts that pop up. By default though the alert only appears for 30 seconds (you can see the number of seconds remaining when tabbing through the alert), so you need to be fairly quick to decide whether to allow or block the application. During installation, which uses the typical Windows Installer service, applications you have installed are detected and thus allowed through by the firewall, including JAWS. Think that is all I have to say for now. Any comments or queries can be sent on or off list. Since it's free I am wondering if David or Rick can put it on their programs page. P.S. The program works with Vista and 7, but it should also work for XP. Enjoy!
