There is an audio tutorial on the program on the server.

I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I'll probably screw that one up
too.

ok, thanks a lot!
It seems to be working fine now. Another quick question...
Can you schedule scans in avast? If so, how would you do that as I don't
see it in the settings.
Thanks again

Hi Faisal,
Try the steps below.
do the following two things to make Avast more accessible.
Configuring Avast to not use the skins for the simple user interface:
1. Start Avast.
2. Wait for the memory test to be completed, then close the web page that
appears. You should now land on a dummy check box.
3. Press the applications key to open a context menu, down arrow to
settings
and press enter. The Programme Settings dialogue box appears, with the
categories tree gaining focus.
4. Tab until you hear, "enable skins for simple user interface check box
checked". Press space to uncheck it.
5. Tab to ok and press enter. You'll land back on the dummy check box.
6. Close and restart Avast. You should now be able to tab through the
controls in this programme.
Configuring JAWS to read lists in Avast:
1. Make sure that you're focused on the Avast Simple User Interface.
2. Press JAWS key 6 to open Configuration Manager.
3. Press enter to accept the New Configuration File dialogue box.
4. Press alt s to open the set options menu, then press a. The advanced
Options dialogue box appears.
5. Shift tab till you hear, "Rely on MSAA for List Views check box not
checked". Press space to check it.
6. Press enter to activate the ok button.
7. Either press control s to save your configuration file immediately, or
press alt F4, pressing enter to activate the yes button on the confirm
dialogue box.
By doing these steps, you'll resolve an issue on some machines whereby
JAWS
stops speaking when focused on any of the lists in Avast.
for a complete scan, check all local disks, check archives, move the
slider to 100% (thorough scan), and click start. Hope that helps.
The link below will provide you with more information.
http://www.accessible-devices.com/AvastProgram.html
Also, once the scan has started turn on your Jaws cursor or route Jaws
cursor to PC cursor with Jaws key + minus key on num pad, then press your
home or control + home keys, then arrow down and you will run across
something that tells you what percentage of scan has been completed.
Hope
all this helps. Have a nice weekend.
Mike

Subject: [JAWS-Users] avast question
hey fokes. Just installed Avast and was wondering which is the best for
a jaws user, the simple interface or the advance or any other interface.
I've noticed you can't do much in the simple interface and during a
scan, you can't see the progress made.
Any inpute on this matter would be very much apreciated

All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be
undertaken with painstaking excellence.
All progress is precarious, and the solution of one problem brings us face
to face with another problem.
