Dear All,
I don't think using a DOS screen reader will work in this way for one very
very simple reason that no one has thought of, the dos box is itself
running like any other app and will also be frozen when the virus
protection kicks in. Also, some screenreaders if loaded in Autoexec.bat do
conflict and prevent windows from even loading, such as Mastertouch 2.0.
