Carol, at work I use jfw for NT under NT 4.0 with service pack 4, and this
does not support the run jaws firs option. However, at home I use the same
version of jfw with the run jaws first option. It never occurred to me not
to use the run jaws firs option at home. However, my home PC has multiple
users, and I suspect that if I put JFW in the start-up menu, this will no
longer speak.
I would be interested in any information you find out.
Regards.
