Hi,
In my experience portions of things related to screen readers being flagged
by antivirus packages has been few and far between, have more often than not
been false positives I.E. not really a problem just a false flag and more
often than not happened with antivirus packages that are free or at lower
price points. I've never had any that caused damage that couldn’t easily be
rectified in short order once the antivirus maker or screen reader
manufacturer was made aware of the issue.
and the few times it did happen it wasn't JFW that was flagged it was
another screen reader package.

Subject: Food for thought
Well I sent a message to the other list, which has absolutely gone mum
on the subject I put out there.
As many of us are on both list, I'm just wondering if anyone has any
thoughts on the possibility that versions of JAWS can be adversely
affected by virus protection that might think of aspects of JAWS as
being malware.
I believe this has happened to me in the past, thus messing up some of
my JAWS versions and possibly passing on any corruption caused by virus
protection deleting any files considered suspect.
Yes, no, maybe so?
