Aaron, I have to say, along with the original poster, I too have been unable to get the .wepm association to work with earlier versions of window eyes. I believe it was 7.11 I tried, under vista, and got the message that Windows didn't know whatt to do with the file. Chip

If, however, you use IE6, and select to run a downloaded WEPM, it will not open automatically. This is a limitation of IE6, not of Window-Eyes.

I want to help her install the killwineyes script on her laptop. I downloaded the killwineyes and homersharedobject scripts onto my computer and sent them to her as attachments in an e-mail message. My friend saved the attachments. We went to the directory where she'd saved the attachments and pressed enter on the files. The computer then said it couldn't find how to open the program and asked if we wanted to use web services or a list of programs to open the program. Obviously, I'd done something wrong. Interestingly, yesterday I downloaded the whether script from script central, saved it into a directory on my computer and then pressed enter on the file -- it ran and installed. What did I do wrong? If I want to help a friend install a script, is the only way to do it to actually download it onto her computer from the gw website, then run the program? Thanks.
