Hi Maria, If I understand your enquiry in your posting, you need what is sounds to me is a download manager. The best that I know that is also accessible to JAWS is Internet Download Manager. Currently version 6 has been released. There is a trial for 30days. You can download the trial at the following link: http://mirror2.internetdownloadmanager.com/idman625build10.exe?v=lt&filename=idman625build10.exe
at a price of $24.95 as an promotional offer then going up to $29.95. if scheduling your downloads, this software seems pretty stout and able to take care of your needs. That is if this is what you're looking for -----Original Message----- From: Soronel Haetir [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, January 16, 2016 7:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Scheduling program I used to use getright before my connection improved, I am pretty sure it can do that, and at the time it was accessible, but that was also a decade ago, things may have gone down hill in the meantime.
