You don't download that program unless you are a paying customer. You can use it free by signing up, getting your account number and PIN, then going to the site, http://www.satogo.com and signing in again. Now, once SA is running, you can move to any site you want and it will keep on going. That's how it works. The idea was to create a speech driven screen reader which is accessible to anyone on any computer with a sound board. The great part is that you can change the voices, speed, volume and so on and then save them. If you have an account, you can then bring up that screen reader wherever you are. I used it once at my niece's house and she and her husband were amazed. I could navigate her computer resonably well except for the areas where she had changed things like the screen magnification and things like that. What an incredibel tool!
