[JAWS-Users] Removing Jaws key- Adding Back to Count
Hello, How do I remove my Jaws key from my PC running XP Pro and add it back to my available Jaws keys? I have had multiple PC failures and have used lots of keys. I do not want to call FS again to bump up my count if I do not have to. I am about to re-install Windows on a PC and want to remove the Jaws key, add it back to my count, so when I reinstall Jaws on that PC and activate Jaws I would not have used any additional keys.

Re: [JAWS-Users] The JAWS cursors
Hi Martin, If you have an audio cd that came with your version of Jaws you should go through much of that material. Basically though, the JawsCursor is what sighted PC users would call the mouse pointer. It can be sitting just about anywhere, even on the desktop while the person is in a word processor or other program. You will find it useful when moving the PcCursor doesn't yield enough information or allow you access to controls you need. Oh and if you didn't get a cd you can always find books under training in the Jaws help system which detail very nicely all of these concepts.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Removing Jaws key- Adding Back to Count
you don't. Legend has it that on Saturday 10/3/2009 09:55 AM, Bill Tipton said: Hello, How do I remove my Jaws key from my PC running XP Pro and add it back to my available Jaws keys? I have had multiple PC failures and have used lots of keys. I do not want to call FS again to bump up my count if I do not have to.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Now Available
I know, I know. It can't be any good if it's from MS. But preliminary reviews of MSE have been very positive for the most part. Most reviewers agree that MSE is at least as effective at detecting malicious threats as the free versions of AVG and Avast, if not more so. Of course, it is probably not as effective as the paid versions of more complete security suites. But it definitely warrants serious consideration for JAWS users who are looking for a basic, fully accessible and easy to use free real-time anti-malware program.

Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Now Available
Actually, you can uninstall it via Add/Remove. I did it on both my XP machine and my Vista machine. The trick is a dialog that pops up for a short time asking you to confirm if you're the one uninstalling the program. On my XP box, Jaws read the dialog perfectly fine, however, on my Vista machine, it didn't and I had to guess where the correct button was. But, really, the worst that could happen is you hit no and have to go back through the process again until you get it right. You may need to alt tab to where you think the dialog is if you have the same experience I did, but don't let that stop you from at least trying to uninstall Avast. If this fails, then use sighted assistance to go through putting Windows into safe mode. But that should be the last resort. Trust me, I had a hard time uninstalling Avast because I didn't know about that dialog, but I was able to figure it out once I discovered that dialog, without any sighted assistance whatever. And, by the way, I am totally blind and have absolutely no vision at all, so it certainly is possible. -- From: Marilyn Walker mlw1...@sbcglobal.net Sent: Saturday, October 03, 2009 8:19 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Now Available Randy, directions below from the Avast software tech department.

MS has just released its new free anti-malware program, Microsoft Security Essentials, for public download. Has anyone tried it out yet during the beta testing cycle? Is it really JAWS-friendly and easy to use? Based on the overwhelmingly positive preliminary reviews, it looks like MS has hit a home run.

flor, How ddid you do that, rather?

I did it on both my XP machine and my Vista machine. The trick is a dialog that pops up for a short time asking you to confirm if you're the one uninstalling the program. On my XP box, Jaws read the dialog perfectly fine, however, on my Vista machine, it didn't and I had to guess where the correct button was. But, really, the worst that could happen is you hit no and have to go back through the process again until you get it right. You may need to alt tab to where you think the dialog is if you have the same experience I did, but don't let that stop you from at least trying to uninstall Avast. If this fails, then use sighted assistance to go through putting Windows into safe mode. But that should be the last resort. Trust me, I had a hard time uninstalling Avast because I didn't know about that dialog, but I was able to figure it out once I discovered that dialog, without any sighted assistance whatever. And, by the way, I am totally blind and have absolutely no vision at all, so it certainly is possible. -- From: Marilyn Walker mlw1...@sbcglobal.net Sent: Saturday, October 03, 2009 8:19 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] MSE Now Available Randy, directions below from the Avast software tech department.

Hello, Got these instructions from Blind Access Journal at: http://blog.blindaccessjournal.com/2009/09/download-instructions-for-microso ft.html Until Microsoft corrects the download process, an alternative exists for blind users to gain access to the software. Follow these steps to download Microsoft Security Essentials: 1. Visit the Microsoft Security Essentials Web site. 2.Select the Locales and languages link. 3.Press the screen reader keystroke to redraw or refresh the interpretation of the screen's contents. This command is Insert+Escape for JAWS and System Access, and Insert+Backslash for Window-Eyes. This step is critical in order to view the information that has changed on the dynamic Web page. 4.Select the country in which you are located from the combo box. 5.Select the link appropriate for the 32- or 64-bit operating system you are running. The download process begins. I haven't tried out the program myself and would like to kno people's experiences with it to see if it's in fact a viable alternative to other security packages that are out there right now.
