Now that these vulnerabilities are publicised, the virus writers will attack all computers whose users are not diligent with these updates or have it done automatically.

I'm making some progress, but am still confused and I may not have explained my problem clearly enough. The instructions I have from the Access Technology Institute textbook seem to differ from yours. The ones I have to access the quick access toolbar are to press ALT, arrow up once. Then to right or left arrow to navigate among the choices. It goes on to say that save is 1, undo is 2 and redo last action is 3. JAWS is not speaking any of these numbers and the only way I've found so far to hear JAWS speak the shortcut keys is to route JAWS to PC when focus is placed on the item in the quick access toolbar. I discovered that paste special has a shortcut of Control-Alt-V which is helpful and will save me from going into the quick access toolbar if I can remember it, but I want to be comfortable with the feature. When I'm in the Quick Access Toolbar, from what the textbook says, I'm expecting to hear JAWS say something like 1 Save 2 Undo 3 redo last action when I left or right arrow among the default options and the only indication I found so far about what number goes with which action is from the text book. Do I have to configure anything in JAWS to hear them or are the numbers only heard after customizing the quick access toolbar? ALT plus 1 works to save, so the numbers associated with the items are there-I'm just not hearing them. Isn't JAWS supposed to say something like Paste Special Control-Alt-V when focus is on the item in the quick access toolbar?

For example, if you have on your quick access the Font... as the fourth item, you can easily access it by Alt+4. It only takes an alt key plus the position of the function you wish to access.

The textbook I have indicates that at least the default items in the quick access toolbar are numbered. JAWS 10 here doesn't speak any numbers and I have to arrow to the items and hit enter to select what I want in the quick access toolbar. I hit ALT and up arrow to get to it. I successfully added paste special to the quick access toolbar and was wondering if additions are supposed to be numbered so I could just press 4 or whatever from within the quick access tool bar instead of arrowing to press special since I use the command a lot? The textbook was written with JAWS 10 in mind and if JAWS is supposed to speak numbers in the quick access toolbar, how do I go about getting it to do it? I might want to add other items, but don't want to have to re-do everything. Any help with this would be greatly

I heard about them from tech podcasts. I did not go looking for them, they were waiting to be downloaded and installed from the System Tray Tuesday night. I like to set the update setting so that I am aware of updates. This does require the user to be viligent! For most people, including my adault kids, I recommend automatic updates.

Re: [Blind-Computing] MSE update failures
I have automatic updates turned on and the latest bunch still wasn't in my sys tray earlier this afternoon when I remembered to look before reading this thread. There were about 13 and it took ages for the machine to check for updates and supposedly download and install all of them. I'll have to go through the whole thing all over again since I don't remember any of the 13 being for IE. Yes, I had it reboot for them to take effect.

I did not go looking for them, they were waiting to be downloaded and installed from the System Tray Tuesday night. I like to set the update setting so that I am aware of updates. This does require the user to be viligent! For most people, including my adault kids, I recommend automatic updates. Open Windows Update and check for Updates. If you use automatic updates, you can check update history to see if the IE8 and Windows 7 security updates were installed this week.

Microsoft released it's largest numberr of security patches to date on Tuesday! I think I had about 14 different security downloads waiting. Make sure that you have downloaded and installed all Windows Updates this week! Now that these vulnerabilities are publicised, the virus writers will attack all computers whose users are not diligent with these updates or have it done automatically. I wonder if the timing of these fixes had anything to do with being so close to the Black Hat Security convention recently? There was even a major security hole disclosed regarding ATM machines.
