[Blind-Computing] AVG PC TuneUp, JAWS Scripts Help Please! Using Win7 JAWS12

2013-04-02 Thread Gena
Could someone help me locate where to find and download scripts for AVG PC 
TuneUp? My husband bought a 2 year subscription and it is difficult for JAWS to 
navigate through all of it easily. I have done many searches on the internet 
but, I can not seem to find the actual scripts, only references to them being 
out there somewhere. I’m very frustrated and need to set some of the settings 
but, I do not seem to be able to navigate well enough without scripts to do so. 
I’d really appreciate the help. I have never installed scripts before but, I 
found instructions on how to do it and it does not sound difficult. If this is 
not the place to ask for such help, can you tell me where the proper place is 
to do so?  

I am running Windows7 with all of the latest updates
I am also using JAWS 12 with all updates to that version.
I am running AVG Internet Security 2013 Free Edition and AVG PC TuneUp, latest 
edition.

If you need more information about my computer, please let me know.

Again, thanks in advance for your help.
Your friend,
Gena

[Blind-Computing] AVG and Jaws

2012-08-29 Thread Niamh
Hi all I fell victim to a horrible worm, something which sounded like MS Anti 
Virus Platinum.
My computer was out for days and it took an engineer to remove it and clean up 
the computer.
He recommended AVG as my program.
I had been using MS security  suit, but it got by that.
Is AVG good and Accessible?

Hi Niamh,

Firstly, sorry about my previous empty message. Human error. (Smile).

In all likelihood, while using Internet Explorer or other browser, you
probably clicked or pressed enter on a warning message telling you
that certain worms or viruses had been discovered on your computer and
that you should click on a Scan or Clean link  to get rid of them.
In fact, when you clicked on the scan link promising to clean your
computer, this was actually a virus you were installing. I'm sure your
computer probably went crazy after that with crazy popups and weird
sounds, and when you tried running your antivirus such as MSE you
could not do so. there are many, many variants of this malware on the
internet.

The reason you got infected was not because Microsoft Security
Essentials failed you (there is no major commercial antivirus that can
protect the user from mistakes in judgment when it comes to this kind
of prompt). AVG will not be able to help you if you come across the
same type of prompt, and Nod32 will also not be able to protect you.
The computer user also bares some responsibility for the security of
their computer.

You should seriously consider taking a multi-layer approach to
protection. You should use a properly configured MSE, and use
Malwarebytes Pro for full real time protection (do not use the free
malwarebytes as it can't protect you in real time and will probably
not be completely effective in ridding your computer of malware after
the fact).

Very glad to hear you are back on your feet as I was a bit upset when
this happened to me also. Luckily, I had an image of my computer from
just a few days prior, which I was able to use to restore my computer
to a working state within an hour.

Hiya

someone once told me, the best way to get out of those traps is just to 
shutdown the computer. do nothing in otherwords as the worm or trojan will 
install if you close the window, with alt F4, do not install in otherwords. 
either way it will install.

[Blind-Computing] AVG 2012 Free Version very slow

2012-02-17 Thread Alan Dicey
Dear Friends,
I have these past 4 or 5 years used the AVG Paid version very successfully, it 
is very JAWS friendly, and I got used to it and liked it.

However, not being able to find a Paid version On Sale at any of the local 
Office supply stores, like Office Max, Office Depot, Staples, and not wanting 
to spend the full cost for the AVG 2012($64) , I downloaded  the Free version.

I find that this version is pretty slow, that is it takes almost 3 times the 
time to scan a folder, or my system's drive than the Paid version used to.

Is any one else having this same situation of AVG 2012 Free Version being very 
slow?

Thanks for any responses.

With Best Regards,
Alan

Subject: [Blind-Computing] AVG removal and MSE installation


Hi list
It's Alvin.
My AVG license is about to expire next month, and I want to make sure
that I uninstall everything associated with it. What's the best way to do
this?
I am thinking about using Microsoft Security Essentials instead.

I already use it on my dad's desktop, and I want to put it on my HP
laptop.
However, I have noticed on my dad's desktop that it seems to take up
quite a bit of the hard drive. At one point, the computer had around 22
gigs free, but after a while, it has about 2 gigs of hard drive.
Is this normal? This would be my only hang up with using MSE. It seems to
be a hard drive hog. :)

Is there something I can do to minimize this from happening? I haven't
installed anything on the desktop that takes up that much space. At least
I don't believe so.
Maybe Windows update is doing it without me knowing. It often installs
things (according to my dad) when I shut down the computer.

The desktop is using Windows XP Pro SP2 with about 1 Gig of ram and
around 40 Gigs on the hard drive. It's an old computer. Lol

My HP Pavilion notebook has about 2 Gigs of Ram and around 80 Gigs on the
hard drive and is using Windows XP Home SP3.
It is pretty old too. Lol I have had it since the spring of 2005.
It shows signs of wear and tare from time to time, but it still gets done
what I need it to do.
I am looking into purchasing another computer anyway.

Well any info/guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Be blessed!

[Blind-Computing] AVG 9

2009-12-15 Thread Patricia Dunbar
I think finally that pest pop up called web browser in AVG 9 has finally 
gone.

I am almost afraid to mention it, for fear it will return, lol.

I'm not sure if it was the 8 window's updates that did the trick, or 
enabling some of the IE/6 add-on in tools/options, or maybe it might have 
been that I added certain web sites and one application, Open Book to 
exclude in it's scanning/tracking that caused this to stop popping up.

But for a whole week now, I've not been bothered with it.

I do have a few items in the AVG components list disabled, but don't really 
think that had much to do with this, as before, when they were disabled, the 
dern pop up still reared it's ugly head.


I know it had nothing to do with Jaws 11 since I have only jaws 10 on my 
computer.

Hmmm, that makes me to wonder if AVG had some kind of glitch and maybe 
through it's updates, it worked it away.

Did you put any web sites by any chance in the exclusion lists?

I had to put All in Play in mine, that web browser popped up in that program 
like crazy..


It also for some reason thought Open Book was a problem, it would try to 
block me from using the program.


It wasn't a firewall issue on either of these, that popped up a screen which 
I allowed it to go through and made it a permanent rule.


One of the add on's in IE I had enabled was, Microsoft's Research function, 
so who knows exactly if any or all of these did the trick, smiles.

I forgot to mention the other part of the AVG issue that upset me the most
and also fixed itself. The help option also started working in an

manner at the same time the popup stopped.

I am pretty sure it was an AVG issue. AVG and Windows (XP Pro) are the 
only

things running on my system that I allow to do automatic updates.

I changed nothing in AVG or MS IE (v 7) I came close to uninstalling AVG
completely and doing a fresh install from the CD or a new download but it
fixed itself in time to keep me from doing that.

Lets hope it stays fixed. Good luck to you as well.

Many former AVG users like myself have switched to MSE rather than deal with 
AVG's annoying glitches.  So there are fewer AVG users on this list to share 
experiences with.  Besides, according to recent comparison tests, AVG is no 
better at virus detection than MSE.  If you really need the extra features 
that the paid version of AVG offers, then by all means stick with it.  But 
for the rest of us, who just need basic real-time protection, MSE is a 
better alternative.

Hi,
I surely wish I could help.  I'm running with the latest build of Jaws

Robin,

Please tell me how that web browser is not popping up on your 
computer?

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

I wanted to share this bit of info regarding that web browser 
window that pops up randomally while I'm working, and it forces me to 
press the escape key and then I have to alt tab back to my window.


I have tried to uncheck everything I felt I could within AVG 9 that 
could pertain to this in hopes it would stop, but it just continued..


So I enabled the pop up in internet explorer and even though this 
thing still pops up on me, now with that enabled, I can press the 
escape key only and I'm back where I was before it appeared.


Hope this might be helpful to anyone else using AVG 9.

I just wanted to state that it might not be necessarily to abandon AVG on

Subject: [Blind-Computing] AVG 9


I wanted to share this bit of info regarding that web
browser window that
pops up randomally while I'm working, and it forces me to
press the escape
key and then I have to alt tab back to my window.

I have tried to uncheck everything I felt I could within AVG
9 that could
pertain to this in hopes it would stop, but it just
continued..

So I enabled the pop up in internet explorer and even
though this thing
still pops up on me, now with that enabled, I can press the
escape key only
and I'm back where I was before it appeared.

Hope this might be helpful to anyone else using AVG 9.

Patricia

Patricia, I have been playing with AVG, and finally switched to Microsoft 
essentials. It in my opinion works just as well as the free edition of AVG 
does, and I think better. If you want the direct link to it, I can post it 
to you. Give it a try. I rethink you might like it.

[Blind-Computing] AVG 9 Web Shield

2009-11-16 Thread Patricia Dunbar





I found this info on the AVG web site and thought to share it with anyone 
using AVG 9 and has encountered this annoying web pop up box and how to 
disable it.


AVG Web Shield is a type of a real-time resident protection. It consists of 
two features - Web protection and Instant Messaging protection.


Web protection scans the downloaded files even before these are downloaded 
to your computer. This is done by scanning communication on ports TCP 80, 
3128 and 8080 by default.


Instant Messaging protection verifies the files sending via instant 
messaging are virus free. Currently AVG supports the ICQ, MSN and Yahoo! 
protocols.




How can I change settings of Web Shield component or disable it?
You can change settings of Web Shield component following way:

 a.. Please open AVG User Interface.
 b.. Double-click on the Web Shield component.
1. Web protection
Following settings may be changed on the Web tab:

 a.. Check archives - Does Web Shield check the archive files (e.g. ZIP)?
 b.. Report Potentially Unwanted Programs and Spyware threats - Does Web 
Shield detect the Potentially Unwanted Programs and Spyware infection?

 c.. Use heuristic analysis - Does Web Shield use the heuristic analysis?
 d.. What is the maximal size of the file that will be checked by Web 
Shield?

2. Instant Messaging protection
You can select what Instant Messaging application, that are supported, will 
be protected by Web Shield component:


 a.. ICQ
 b.. MSN
 c.. Yahoo
In case you want to disable Web Shield component, please proceed as follows:

 a.. Open AVG User Interface.
 b.. Double-click on the Web Shield component.
 c.. Un-tick the Enable Web Shield option.
 d.. To confirm the settings please click on the Save changes button.




I will try these steps to see if this removes this pop-up of this Web 
dialogue box, if it doesn't, then I will email tech support.


Also here is a direct link that I found rather interesting read of index 
help within AVG and very easily navigated with my jaws version 10.

 a.. Check archives - Does Web Shield check the archive files (e.g. ZIP)?
 b.. Report Potentially Unwanted Programs and Spyware threats - Does Web
Shield detect the Potentially Unwanted Programs and Spyware infection?
 c.. Use heuristic analysis - Does Web Shield use the heuristic analysis?
 d.. What is the maximal size of the file that will be checked by Web
Shield?
2. Instant Messaging protection
You can select what Instant Messaging application, that are supported, 
will

be protected by Web Shield component:

 a.. ICQ
 b.. MSN
 c.. Yahoo
In case you want to disable Web Shield component, please proceed as 
follows:


 a.. Open AVG User Interface.
 b.. Double-click on the Web Shield component.
 c.. Un-tick the Enable Web Shield option.
 d.. To confirm the settings please click on the Save changes button.




I will try these steps to see if this removes this pop-up of this Web
dialogue box, if it doesn't, then I will email tech support.

Also here is a direct link that I found rather interesting read of index
help within AVG and very easily navigated with my jaws version 10.

[Blind-Computing] AVG and IE 8 question

2009-09-28 Thread David Ferrin
The question here is if a person got AVG installed on their computer prior to 
IE 8 being released do they need to change or upgrade AVG for some 
compatibility reason or anything of the kind. I am not using AVG at this time 
so anything I could say would not be applicable.

[Blind-Computing] AVG threat detection inquiry

2009-07-26 Thread acarthon
Hi list,
It's AC. I am running the latest version of AVG 8.5 Pro. I was doing some
PC maintenance when the following dialogue appeared on completion of me
running the Disc Cleanup program. 

Resident Shield alert
Accessed file information
Information
File name:  C:\Program Files\WinFrotzTTS\FrotzDeutsch.dll
Threat name:   Multiple runtime compression pec2,upx
 Detected on open.
 More information about this threat ...
not checked Remove threat as Power User
Add to Exceptions Ignoregraphic 895 
graphic 945  Hide details
Process name: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cleanmgr.exe
Process ID:  2516 

What does this mean, and what should I do? I have the option of adding it
to my exceptions or ignoring it. 
Well, I clicked on ignore and the dialogue box closed. I haven't used the
WindowFrotz-TTS program in a while, so I don't know what could be going
on. 
Any guidance with this matter would be much appreciated. 
Thanks in advance.

Win Frotz is an emulator, right?  If this is a program that is trustworthy 
then the scanner sometimes can go off with this alert,because malware is 
sometimes compiled and packed in the same manner as was used with this 
program. Considering the fact that this is a free emulator it may be a false 
positive. best to just go ahead and use an online scanner to recheck the 
file in question.
kaspersky.has a good online scan for single files. so you may want to run 
your file thru their scanner. her is the link:

I did send them a request on their web page with my current license info, 
but thought I would run it by this list here to see if this is necessary or 
will AVG automatically recognize the new email address change?

[Blind-Computing] AVG 8.5 Scanning Time

2009-04-04 Thread Maurice T. Toler
I have a new computer that came with AVG.  Prior to AVG 8.5, I was using a free 
version of Avast.  AVG scans the whole computer in about 19 minutes, whereas, 
Avast took about 48 minutes to do a complete scan.  Is this time difference 
appropriate, and does AVG handle virus, spyware, adware, etc.?

No. Avast handles more, this is why it takes longer to scan. AVG, the Free 
Edition, only provides basic virus and spyware protection whilst Avast 
provides antivirus, antispyware, antimalware, and even antirootkit, all for 
free!

Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG 8.5 Scanning Time

The AVG 8.5 is not a free edition.  Does your response also apply to the 
paid edition?

No. Avast handles more, this is why it takes longer to scan. AVG, the Free
Edition, only provides basic virus and spyware protection whilst Avast
provides antivirus, antispyware, antimalware, and even antirootkit, all 
for

free!

I have a new computer that came with AVG.  Prior to AVG 8.5, I was using a
free version of Avast.  AVG scans the whole computer in about 19 minutes,
whereas, Avast took about 48 minutes to do a complete scan.  Is this time
difference appropriate, and does AVG handle virus, spyware, adware, etc.?

No it is the free edition only. The paid edition will have the same if not 
similar protection to Avast Free.

[Blind-Computing] AVG 8.5

2009-04-02 Thread Riley Blake
Hi all:
I have AVG 7.5 on my desktop computer running windows xp sp 3.  I'd like to 
down load 8.5, but when I try to find it on the web page, I can't find the free 
edition that I'm using now.  How can I find it?

[Blind-Computing] AVG with the new JAWS update

2009-04-01 Thread Carlene knight
 Hi.

Is anybody having trouble finding the buttons in AVG with JAWS 10.0.1139?
That coupled with the double speaking in Outlook makes me wish I hadn't
updated JAWS.  I will try a repare later.

Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG with the new JAWS update

2009-04-01 Thread Deanne
I just upgraded my JAWS to 10.0.1142, so maybe they fixed some of those bugs 
in the very latest upgrade?  You could try upgrading again and see if it 
fixes the problems.  I'm running AVG 8.5 and it works for me just the same 
as it did with my previous version of JAWS 10.

Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG 8.5

2009-03-10 Thread Linda Parent
Hi,

I guess if you want to downgrade, uninstall the 8.5 version and reinstall
the free version.  I'm not sure if it is free anymore but at least it is
usable and I imagine you can purchase the older version.

Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG Anti-Virus Accessibillity

2009-03-05 Thread Chris Hallsworth
Absolutely, especially the internet security suites. That's not to say the 
free edition isn't accessible; however, the free edition does display a 
banner which gains focus when you first open AVG, so you'll need to alt tab 
from and to the AVG user interface before you can use it.

 Hello,

 I just installed the AVG 8 and all that went fairly well. I just had a
 concern in regards to the firewall settings and was wondering if anyone
 on here might be using this and can tell me what exactly should I check
 or not check for the firewall settings.
 I did run the scan and it detected all the ports I need to be allowed to

 go through the firewall.
 A last screen popped up regarding the firewall stuff such as it detected

 my LAN settings and gave me 3 options...allow all, block all and stand
 alone computer*I chose this last one*
 Also a couple of box's to be checked and I didn't check either and last
 2 were for a name so the firewall can use that name when it loads and a
 profile and I chose no profile.

 I did check within the AVG through my systems tray and found I am fully
 protected and the firewall is fully functioning. So I guess I did that
 right and I wonder if that last screen was just personal info if you
 chose to set it up that way?

 I have to remind y'all the last time I tried to install this, I got a
 screen saying I had to uninstall Office and Outlook Express which I did
 neither and canceld it.
 Since that time, I have installed Office 2003 and would you know...that
 never popped up during the install of AVG 8.

Re: [Blind-Computing] AVG 8

2009-01-07 Thread David Griffith
I am  getting a little disillusioned with AVG and its Firewall. I rung
their technical support a few months ago and they told me I had to upgrade
to version 8 before they could address a Malware infection on my PC. In the
event they could not help anyway and I had to restore my PC from a Ghost
image to resolve the problem.   Nevertheless I upgraded to version 8 to try
and prevent future problems. The problem is that in version 8 accessibility
with Jaws has plummeted.

Seeing the  issues today about what settings the Firewall should b on   I
rang AVG technical support . Like others I had chosen the allow all setting
as opposed to block all or stand alone PC.  AVG tech support said that
actually none of these options suited a PC user with a home network linking
to a laptop for example.  It seems that because of the hidden nature of the
appropriate settings I have been incorrectly keeping the setting on allow
all and receiving minimal protection. No wonder I have been having to resort
to Super Anti-Spyware!

They recommended that the Firewall configuration wizard be run completely
from scratch and apparently from this wizard there is an option to select
Computer and Domain as an option, this option does not appear in the main
settings of AVG 8 . Apparently you can then nominate a name for your home
network which does not have to correlate to your actual home network name.
This option will apparently allow you to have firewall protection and use a
home network.  The other advice was not to try and modify existing settings
as this apparently causes problems. Start with a completely new
configuration wizard..

The problem is that I have spent the last 30 minutes trying to locate the
Configuration Wizard for the Firewall  within a very flaky User interface. I
have been using the Jaws cursor and the PC Cursor. At the moment I am able
to locate a Firewall button using the Jaws cursor but no amount of real or
virtual mouse clicking will activate this button. Space or enter will not
work on this button either. You can enter Firewall settings through the menu
but  again I cannot find a button to start the configuration wizard.  I'll
try restarting the PC in a minute to see if that accessibility can be
improved.

Given that home networks are pretty common these days I am quite annoyed
that the default installation of AVG appears to lead you into a risky
Firewall setup. If anybody else can set up computer and domain as the
profile within the AVG 8 firewall I would be very glad to hear how they did
it.

On my PC restart AVG detected the Home network but the only options allowed

The good news is that Jaws 10 demo did indeed provide access to AVG firewall
settings  that my Jaws 8 could not reach. The bad news is that despite the

OK - I finally got there and I did not have to ring AVG technical support.

In summary What I did was 
1. run Jaws 10 in demo mode. Oddly this has now had the effect of making
Jaws 8 work better with AVG and I no longer have to use Jaws 10 in demo
mode. What I found was that you should just use the cursor keys to navigate
the window and avoid using the tab key.   On my setup using the tab key
tended to make Jaws lose focus.
2. Run the configuration wizard and select computer and domain as the
Firewall profile type.
3. Restart your PC.
4. This was the confusing bit . Go back to AVG Firewall settings after
restart . What I found was that although I had run the configuration wizard
this had not actually changed any settings at all and I was still stuck on
stand alone PC. What had happened however, was that computer and domain had
been added as a setting to select via a check box.
5. Check this computer  and domain setting and execute the save settings

Finally my home network reappeared on my Laptop and hopefully for the first

The good news is that Jaws 10 demo did indeed provide access to AVG firewall
settings  that my Jaws 8 could not reach. The bad news is that despite the
AVG advice I have now been locked out of my home network after setting up
the configuration wizard under computer and domain profile!

Back yet again to AVG tech support I suppose.

well it popped up again soon as I turned on my computer. So this time, I 
chose to check the box to not tell me if it finds a new or detection of my 
LAN, why would I need it to tell me this and it's not changed...

I did leave the stand alone computer as is, but that wasn't listed..
I did have to select it or I think in the set up process it already was. I 
routed jaws and found a list and that was the likely choice pertaining to my

Hello,

I just installed the AVG 8 and all that went fairly well. I just had a 
concern in regards to the firewall settings and was wondering if anyone 
on here might be using this and can tell me what exactly should I check 
or not check for the firewall settings.
I did run the scan and it detected all the ports I need to be allowed to 
go through the firewall.
A last screen popped up regarding the firewall stuff such as it detected 
my LAN settings and gave me 3 options...allow all, block all and stand 
alone computer*I chose this last one*
Also a couple of box's to be checked and I didn't check either and last 2 
were for a name so the firewall can use that name when it loads and a 
profile and I chose no profile.


I did check within the AVG through my systems tray and found I am fully 
protected and the firewall is fully functioning. So I guess I did that 
right and I wonder if that last screen was just personal info if you 
chose to set it up that way?


I have to remind y'all the last time I tried to install this, I got a 
screen saying I had to uninstall Office and Outlook Express which I did 
neither and canceld it.
Since that time, I have installed Office 2003 and would you know...that 
never popped up during the install of AVG 8.

well it popped up again soon as I turned on my computer. So this time, I 
chose to check the box to not tell me if it finds a new or detection of my 
LAN, why would I need it to tell me this and it's not changed...

I did leave the stand alone computer as is, but that wasn't listed..
I did have to select it or I think in the set up process it already was. I 
routed jaws and found a list and that was the likely choice pertaining to 
my situation.

Oh no. I have told it to allow all, should I have chosen standalone

Hello,

I just installed the AVG 8 and all that went fairly well. I just had a 
concern in regards to the firewall settings and was wondering if anyone 
on here might be using this and can tell me what exactly should I check 
or not check for the firewall settings.
I did run the scan and it detected all the ports I need to be allowed to 
go through the firewall.
A last screen popped up regarding the firewall stuff such as it detected 
my LAN settings and gave me 3 options...allow all, block all and stand 
alone computer*I chose this last one*
Also a couple of box's to be checked and I didn't check either and last 
2 were for a name so the firewall can use that name when it loads and a 
profile and I chose no profile.


I did check within the AVG through my systems tray and found I am fully 
protected and the firewall is fully functioning. So I guess I did that 
right and I wonder if that last screen was just personal info if you 
chose to set it up that way?


I have to remind y'all the last time I tried to install this, I got a 
screen saying I had to uninstall Office and Outlook Express which I did 
neither and canceld it.
Since that time, I have installed Office 2003 and would you know...that 
never popped up during the install of AVG 8.

[Blind-Computing] avg 8.0 settings

2008-12-08 Thread Marvin Hunkin
Hi.
1. set up the avg 8.0 free, and it is not displaying the text checked by avg
free.
2. went into advanced options under tools, clicked on the incoming message
certification, checked and selected my language as english, for incoming and
outgoing and says the text of the message in text boxes, clicked apply, then
okay.
3. and in my messages, not displaying the text checked by avg free 8.0.
4. what could be the source of this problem? really annoying me.
5. would like to have this if possible.
6. those with some sight, or have had some experience in setting up avg free
8.0, the only way maybe to get round this and help me, is maybe to do a jaws
tandem?
that might be the way to go.
so if any one is interested, let me know asap.
this is really annoying me.
or should i not really worry about this one?
want to be safe, and secure on the net.
cheers Marvin.

Hi Steve,

My mom is having the same issue. It started a week or so ago. I have a 
feeling a Windows update caused some sort of conflict with AVG and XP. I 
haven't had time to check further into it, but am hoping that AVG may be 
aware of the problem already and is working on a download to fix the 
problem.

If I get anywhere with this, or if you do, let's get it posted for anyone 
else that may be having the same problem.

This same sort of problem cropped up several months back, and AVG finally 
put out a fix. I had contacted them back then and they had me go in and 
delete a file that seemed to help. I can't remember all the steps right now,

but I have them in my notes somewhere. I'll be looking for those notes when 
I get some time here in the next few days.
Ken

I had an issue with AVG in the system's tray it said...my email scanner was 
half functioning.

The help files to fix this was very clear and easy to correct.
I had to choose the default settings for AVG's configuration for Outlook 
Express and then had to check the box to disabled email scanner personal 
plug ins as the help files suggested to do.

Then reboot.
Now all is set correctly and I think it's working better than it has all

Is it actually that easy?  Will that transfer all my settings from JAWS 
7



or just the Dictionary?

The short answer is yes. Is that all you wanted my friend or would you
like
to know how it's done? Actually look for the merge utility in the jaws
window and follow the directions.

Is there any way that I can transfer my settings from JAWS 7 to JAWS 
10?

I am especially hoping
this is possible for at least the JAWS Dictionary.

Thanks,
Donnie

 Yes it is that easy. It will transfer all of your dictionary files and 
 many of your configuration files as well.
