This exact issue was raised by me several months ago. In recent
experimentation, I found that the login does work once in a while, but
rarely. One day, I tried it many times. Most of the time, I lost
speech when I clicked on the "I agree" button. Howver, once or twice it
worked. Does this mean it is a bug in the login process or is this
being done by design to limit its use? I do not know myself, but it is
clear that SA to Go is not a viable or reliable alternative for speech.

But how can they fix this problem if they don't respond to email

Usage Agreement explicitly states that Serotek does not provide tech

what's really going on with his company.

Interestingly enough:
a) 1 gentleman was claiming his virus scanner was comin' up screaming
on their docuscan; &
b) Superantispyware flagged a file of theirs as being infected
w/Vundo. Now, I readily admit that these could well be false
positives, as these types of programs are known for such, or the
infections could have happened on the computers in question & have
nothing to do w/Serotek. Please understand I am *not* alleging that
their products are infected. I am *not*! O, btw, did I make it clear
I'm not sayin their products are infected or contain malware? If not,
then please understand that I don't think they do.
What I am saying, though, is that if antivirus/antispyware programs
are flagging their stuff, then obviously there's a problem they need
to deal with. What these apps are probably flagging is certain hooking
or connectivity behaviors of the programs in question, some of which
might in fact be needed to run the applications successfully. But it
will definitely prevent them from running, & they might thus lose
sales as a result, which is never a good thing. So, if they're having
problems, I do hope they can resolve them quickly for the sake of
their business, if nothing else. And if security software is flagging
their programs, then they should try to assist users where possible to
whitelist or otherwise stop that kind of behavior. That's especially
true because they do cater particularly, I think, to the more
entry-level users. I wish them well.

JAWS and NVDA couldn't. Too bad. At least Serotek could have
provided some
advance notice that SA to Go was being discontinued.

Nope, it is such a hassel that I will just use NVDA. Besides, you
can put
NVDA on a thumb-drive and take it with you so who needs system access
to go?

So you couldn't log into SA to Go either?

Hi all.
Probably why Satogo appears to be going. Smiles. NVDA is so usable that
most of us rarely if at all use System Access to Go.
Just my £0.02.
Take care.

heard it mentioned lately on the SeroTalk podcasts. Oh well, at least
NVDA is still usable.

Hi list. I have had a free System Access to Go account for over a
year. Today, I logged onto my SA to Go account for the first time in
a few months, but when I clicked on the link labeled "i Agree" on the
Usage Agreement page, SA to Go immediately shut down. I logged in
again, and once again when I clicked on the Agree link on the Usage
Agreement page, SA to Go shut down. Of course, contacting Serotek
tech support would be useless because they only provide support for
paying customers. Has anyone else experienced this problem with the
SA to Go Usage Agreement page? Or is it just me? Thanks for any
feedback.
Gerald
