I haven't had problem with it, but lately, my husband has monitored it. I
just made a quick check and wasn't getting very far. JAWS does read when it
is updating and gives the percents. It has been very serviceable in terms of
computer safety. I am afraid that more and more programs are becoming more
challenging. My husband was a graphic artist (printer), and he told me that
all printed material is becoming more graphic and more reader challenged,
even hard copy other than statements or plain text documents. He also taught
electronics in community college, so he keeps my computer in top shape. I am
guilty of becoming a little lazy in some areas.

When you say that Avira is "Pretty good", are you saying that it is only
somewhat accessible?
Thanks! Vicky

I got rid of AVG in 2007, and on advice of an IBM engineer got Avira. It's
pretty good.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws And Anti-virus
Hello, everyone.
You may recall that, a few days ago, I was having trouble with a program
on
my computer running in the background, and interfering with Jaws.
Originally, I thought the problem was with Java.
Apparently, the problem was not with Java, but was with the latest
version
of the AVG anti-virus software. I think the version number is AVG 15.
Last night, an AVG update occurred, which literally made Jaws totally
unusable.
I've now completely uninstalled AVG, and Jaws works perfectly.
Has anyone else had this problem with AVG, and if so, how did you deal
with
it?
If AVG is not the most Jaws-friendly anti-virus program to be using with
Jaws, does someone have recommendations for a more Jaws-friendly
anti-virus
program?
I'd prefer to stick with free anti-virus software if possible.
Any help would be appreciated, since I am not comfortable running this
computer without anti-virus software.
For the record, I'm using Jaws 14 on this windows 7 computer.
