I actually happened across this on mudconnector, which is a bit surprising
since it's not what I would consider a mud. But it is pretty cool for a
browser-based game. It's sort of like a mix between Diablo and a tactical RPG.
It's got diablo's randomly generated equipment system and quest path,

Caronite, or High Servant
This creature is small (roughly the size of a child).
They live in swamps and marshes.
A typical group, or mob, consists of 2-12 creatures.
The Caronite looks like the offspring of a frog, a bird of paradise and a
rhinoceros.
They're a type of Spirit (see below).

Thanks for this, I'll gladly give this one a go.
Diablo is indeed one of those games I've always wanted to play, me being an
exploration nut, and it's good to here the developer has access in mind.
Beware the grue!

What about having the text as buttons? I haven't played the game but my
thinking here is that if it's just clickable text which jaws/wineyes doesn't
always handle well, what about having the text there still but as a button?
At least then the screen reader will be able to access it.

Hi dark,
Have you tried to use c cleaner to kill the dud registry entries? I don't
have a problem with firefox myself but if there's dud entries in the
registry then that can cause issues for sure.

Yep, that would work, and also be quicker with Hal sinse I'd not need to

Hi Darren.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I run pc tuneup to clean the registry
regularly once a week, so I doubt that is the problem.
All the best,

Hi Dark,
I suppose, but from my point of view everything in life happens to be

baseball with my son, reading from a menu in a diner, it requires more

Hi Ben,
Simple answer. Your universities aren't into that kind of research.
There are universities that focus on medical research, others do
technical research, others that are into advanced physics, etc. It is
rather obvious that the leaders in those specific fields would invent

Ben,
We here in the U.S. don't get anything like this either. This is a
research project, which means some college students and a professor or

could hire people to build a custom one for you if you wanted. It

How about Firefox 13? Firefox 10 is rather old and perhaps trying a

Sure. However, my basic point is that you have some vision therefore
