A friend of mine has told me that NOD-32 has recently come out with a new update. Is it accessible with Windoweyes?
Same question for Maleware Bytes; a while ago it wasn't accessible at all. Has that changed? If not, what virus/malware programs do folks recommend for use with WE? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carol and Roger via Talk Sent: Friday, July 22, 2016 9:00 PM To: Lloyd Rasmussen; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: strange speaking of character Thanks to the Window-Eyes staff and David, my problem has been solved. First, I am using Neospeech Paul or Voiceware Paul, whichever you choose to call the voice. It appears the problem here is the comma after the word "hi" and before the letter "I." If I break the line, it says "i" and if I choose another voice, it says "i" meaning that the VWPaul voice must have a feature which allows for Roman Numerals. I will also check my WE settings to see if there is another option. After playing with my settings, I have determined that the issue is with the voice, not Window-Eyes. Thank you for the assistance, I am sure. OK, now that I have that figured out, the I after the comma next to the word assistance, does say I, not one as I might expect, grin. Anyway, it is no big deal, I just couldn't figure out why it was saying one. And, it has not done it anywhere else except in the example I referred to earlier. Everyone have a nice weekend.
