I agree this box is a little problematic. However, there is a simple solution to the problem. You will want to maximize skype before going into the help menu and the about box. You will be able to virtualized the window and extract the information you require. Another and much more efficient means of getting the version information for Skype is accomplished with the say version command jaws+control+v. Issue this command twice to get the information into the virtual viewer. I hope this helps

Subject: [Skypeenglish] About Box It looks like the Skype About Box isn't as intutitive as it can be. It is very tricky trying to get information from it when usign the CTRL+INSERT+W (Virtualizing the Window) or using the JAWS Cursor. We can forget about trying to get any information from it using the Arrow Keys or Tab Key. I would like to see the next revision of the scripts improve on this as I think that it would be a great addition.
