Goodness, I remember reading something about that, but don't think I ever saw a real life copy. Those were the days when I'd download and try things, without having to worry about a registry. All I really needed to get out of even the worst jams was a boot disk!
Funnyh you should mention that, as I was thinking earlier today how much we owe the guys I call pioneers--Hutchinson (a native of Rockcastle,KY, I'm proud to say), Holiday, Skutchan, [yes, Virginia], Henter Etc.

Jonathan also explained patiently how you can turn it off altogether or for specific sites. I rather like it myself. I think that FS is truly trying to keep up with the ever-changing demands myself. I can understand how hard this is; my ex-husband, Dr. Hallenbeck, wrote ProVox, and I know it is a dinosaur, but it did point out how you have to work to keep up with ever-changing demands. I got a new notebook computer once and it didn't work using his software so I had to use another screen reading program. He worked zealously to make his software work with that computer and succeeded, but it wasn't an immediate thing by any means.

Is FS really trying to keep up with changes in technology with each successive release of JAWS? Or are they merely trying to maximize profits by introducing features of dubious value to justify charging for SMA updates? A perfect example is JAWS 17 which introduced "smart" navigation? Except for Jonathan Mosen, who is a paid pitchman for FS, have you seen anyone else rave about how indespensible this feature is?

This is precisely why, although I complain about the problems with JAWS, I can also understand the challenge of FS trying to keep up with the never-ending changes in technology.
