Kathy, The scripts make using Skype a lot more Jaws friendly. And you can get scripts for any version of Skype. The more recent scripts are a .exe file. This means that you don't need to know how to install them. They install themselves. Just keep hitting the next button. Just make sure you have them install to the version of Jaws you're using. But if you only have one version of Jaws in your computer, then you're all set. If you'd like to take a look at the site, the link is,
