Weirdest thing that ever happened to me was when Avira put my volume control in Quarantine. If that happened now, I'd be up the creek, as I had to do a restore to fix it.

Subject: Re: Food for thought 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.
