Re: [JAWS-Users] whs home server management console and remotedesktop
Hi, apparently there is a program that installs to regular windows xp machines called windows home server connector. This is used to make all settings. So my question is : Are these programs accessible? Best regards Jeronimo - Original Message - From: Brent Harding bhard...@doorpi.net To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 9:03 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] whs home server management console and remotedesktop I was thinking about maybe getting one of these some day to add more storage to my system. The problem with USB is that the drive powers down too fast, it's in WD's firmware because I have all power management turned off here, and it shuts down short enough that if you're doing a show online you get the second of dead air at the crossfade point between two songs while the drive powers up. I've gotten it sometimes, and sometimes things just lock up if the file's not accessed in time. It's a given we'd need the remote access license added to Jaws, but can this be installed to the server without sighted help? They say it's like having a small 2003 server, which could be useful to learn about anyways. - Original Message - From: Jeronimo Schöber i...@masterid.de To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 11:29 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] whs home server management console and remote desktop Hello, has anybody a windows home server and is using an other jaws enabled computer to configure and administer it?

[JAWS-Users] PAC MAN NOISE SOUND HEARD WHEN STARTING GOOGLE

I did not click on the link one because with that annoying noise playing it was difficult to understand JAWS so I was more concerned with trying to find out how to stop it. I checked my Norton and it said I was protected. Can anyone enlighten me on what this is and whether there is a way to stop it? Also after the noise is done I guess I gotten eaten because after that all I heard was a siren like sound. Any knowledge on this matter would be appreciated greatly.

Re: [JAWS-Users] google homepage problem
Using google.com/ie, I have lost the lovely clean page that used to come up when I typed in the address. Now it talks about Google toolbar and downloading IE8, and there is no search field. Anyone using this Google format, has yours lost its perspective too? Not just today--for the last week or so. I don't find google toolbar in my programs anywhere, so I don't *believe it has been downloaded/installed. certainly not intentionally.

If you want to disable PacMan, turn off Load Images Automatically. In Firefox: Go to Tools / Options / Content / uncheck Load Images Automatically. Then restart FireFox. IE has a similar option. Gary For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
