Thanks a million, Andrew. I already have Adobe Reader 8, but had forgotten where I got it. These wonderful directions are going to a friend who has a love/hate relationship with computers. Hopefully, she will have an easy time with this. Sunny Day Maria Campbell [EMAIL PROTECTED] rules to be happy: 1. Free your heart from hatred. 2. Free your mind from worries. 3. Live simply. 4.

This will insure that you don't inadvertently download this annoying Toolbar. You then need to tap the letter B two times or until you move to the (download Adobe Reader button) and then tap enter to start the download process. If you hear a blupey sound, this means that the program is being blocked and you will need to hold down Alt and tap the letter N. then tap your applications key, down arrow to install and enter. This will tell your computer that it is OK to download the program. You then will receive a message asking if you would like to run or save this file. Up-arrow to run and enter. The download process will start. It may take a few minutes to download. When it is dun, you will be placed on a install now button, tap enter on this button. You now will be placed on a next button, tap enter on this button. You now will be placed on another install button, enter on this button. Now just sit back and let it take care of it's self. When it has finished installing, you will be placed on a finish button. Just enter on this button to complete the install. Keep in mind at any time you would like to repeat the last prompt spoken, just use the JAWS repeat command insert plus tab. Now you will need to set up the program. The license agreement will pop up. Shift tab back to the except button and tap enter. Now an accessibility option screen will pop up all you need to do hear is tab once to (use recommended settings and skip setup button) and then tap enter. Now all you need to do is use alt plus F4 to close the program and the next time you receive a .PDF file you should be able to open it. I hope these directions are clear, I put them together in about 10 minutes. ----- Original Message ----- From: Maria Campbell To: jaws-users-list@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, January 26, 2007 7:40 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Adobe reader 8 Could someone please send again the link for downloading Adobe Reader 8?
