A good antivirus program should take care of any risks from the reading
pane by scanning incoming emails.

Hi Susan.
About the E-mail client, i can tell you, that i have Used Windows Live
Mail both on a 32 bit Windows 7 laptop computer, and on a 64 bit
Windows 7 desktop computer.
There are some diffaculties reading e-mails, send by som e-mail
client's, and therefor i have left the reading phane visible, so when
a hit on the enter key was whithout any result, than i escaped back to
the inbox, and tab'ed into the reading phane, and here i always get
result.
There is a security risc by having the reading phane visible, because
the letter changes from unread to read, after highlighting in 5
second's, but this can be changed in the options menu, so it is
possible to hear whom the mail is from and the subject, and getting
it deleted, before the letter changes to read, and if it should
contain a dangerous virus, that automatically would start working, not
will be any risc for you, because you have had the time to permanently
delete it before.
Just change the time from 5 second's to 60 second's, so you have time
enough to do your task.
I don't hope that i have scared you by this last information, but we
are living in a riscful world.
Hans Pauli.

Emne: Re: [JAWS-Users] questions about JAWS and Windows 7
Jim,
Thanks for your response about the JAWS settings. The reason I'm
asking so
specifically about individual programs is that my son will essentially
be
putting together this PC from a kit so it will not have the usual
bloatware,
which means that we are trying to remember what we need to bring it up
to
speed. For example, it's my understanding that Windows 7 will include
Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer. Since I'll likely have to
download some things once I'm up and running, I obviously need a web
browser
to do this and wanted to be sure I didn't have to jump through a lot
of
hoops to get it. As to the email client to use, I've tried both
Outlook and
Windows Live Mail ever so briefly but not long enough to feel
comfortable
with either one. I will be getting JAWS 12 next week and will have a
few
weeks to play with it before purchasing and setting up the new PC, so
maybe
it is time to revisit outlook. Again, I really appreciate your
thoughts on
all this and will probably have more specific questions as I get
further
into this.
