Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG 9
Hi, I surely wish I could help. I'm running with the latest build of Jaws under windows vista home premium and have never encountered such a window as you and others have described. I just wanted to state that it might not be necessarily to abandon AVG on mass as the affliction doesn't seem to happen everywhere. Sorry I can't help more.

I am wondering if it has anything to do with what operating system is running. I am still on xp pro or the window's media 2005 which according to FS it's considered to be xp pro. Even though AVG said v/9 works still with xp I can't seem to get rid of this thing.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Question about Weather aloud
Hi, When in the main window of the program if you select show global locations then choose United States of America you'll see two choices one that shows locations in list form and one that allows you to search by zip code.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Problem With Radio Shack Web Site and IE 8
Hi, I'm running Jaws 10 with IE 8 under windows vista and radioshack.com is working just fine as can be here. though I myself did run into a slight difficulty at the Sovereign Bank online banking site but it is Sovereign's problem with IE 8 and they do know about it. I just thought I'd mention it here in case any listers also bank there. It works fine with Fire fox and a fix for that site any way should be forth coming within days. But as I said Radio shack is performing fine here. Hope this helps.

I had no trouble loading it using Firefox, and never had any problem with this site using IE 7. I would appreciate it if anyone else using IE 8 could try to access this web site and explain what's going on. Thanks.
