Hello Pam, I disagree. Remember, not all Window-Eyes users are
subscribed here or to the various news and announcement lists. So, if
they didn't do that as you suggest, how would those users know that
Window-Eyes will no longer be updated? I know it must feel like a slap
in the face each time you see that message, but trust me, this is to
reach those people who don't get the announcements in other ways.
I hope this helps clear it up.

Yesterday, the window eyes thing came on that tells you there are new
aps to download. It surprised me. After I told it to download, I got
that message. So, I guess they sent an ap with that. They really
didn't need to do that! Pam.

Hi.
remember, no one is saying you have to stop using Window-eyes. If it
works,
keep right on using it as long as you can! I also have JAWS once
again on
this machine but very rarely do I ever use it. it's there if I ever
need it.
Window-eyes is going to be my primary screenreader until it doesn't work
anymore.

Hello List,
I turn Window-eyes on manually. Yesterday after my computer almost
died due to multiple and random power surges, I got the Window-eyes
End of Life Notification. Really depressing. I wish they had just
said window-eyes Discontinuation Notice - it would have been less
ominous.
Fortunately, my husband revived my Window7 machine and Window-eyes
still works. I need to use Jaws more often so I can learn it, but I
just can't bring myself to do so when Window-Eyes works with programs
like Vipre and Jaws doesn't. Also, Window-Eyes has a setting which
makes it work in safe mode and Jaws doesn't.
Brenda
