Avira used to be accessible, but it no longer is. The problem is that it now runs from the system tray, and JAWS seems to be unable to access its user interface.
As for Norton, it depends a lot on how much ram you have. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim Ford via Jfw Sent: Friday, February 27, 2015 10:24 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list.

Subject: Re: Food for thought Hello , I had purchased Avast, and a few weeks later took my laptop into "Mothers," (a well respected computer shop in Victoria, BC.) for another issue. As the technician worked on my machine he proceeded to unload Avast saying that Microsoft Essentials performed the same tasks, and when there are multiple protection programs at work they tend to fight with each other. Cheers Kevin. -----Original Message----- From: Maria Campbell via Jfw Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2015 3:50 PM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Subject: Food for thought Well I sent a message to the other list, which has absolutely gone mum on the subject I put out there. As many of us are on both list, I'm just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the possibility that versions of JAWS can be adversely affected by virus protection that might think of aspects of JAWS as being malware. I believe this has happened to me in the past, thus messing up some of my JAWS versions and possibly passing on any corruption caused by virus protection deleting any files considered suspect. Yes, no, maybe so? -- Sunny Day Maria Campbell [email protected] Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.
