Re: [Blind-Computing] smart fortress 2012

2012-04-27 Thread Joy Cyr
It is a wicked Trojan that I had removed from my machine in the last few days.  
While my machine is now clean it has permanently damaged my connection stacks 
and I need to replace my hard drive, and I can't copy this one.

It seems the most effective method of dealing with it is using a program in 
Malware Bites called Chameleon.  I think (but am not sure) it can only be 
accessed through dos so I'm not sure how easy (or otherwise) it might be to use 
with screen reading software.  I'm not up to that sort of computer maintenance 
so I'm passing along my recent observation of how my tech dealt with it.  This 
thing's primary target seems to be your internet connections, and it disables 
or damages programmes like Malware bites which makes it tricky to deal with.

Best of luck!
Joy

[Blind-Computing] External Folder Question.

2012-04-27 Thread Thomas E. Williamson

Hello,
How do you delete a file or folder from your external drive, when the 
conventional way of pressing the delet key, or pressing the applications 
key, and then up or down arrow to the delete key, and press enter on it does 
not work?
The file or folder name has series of numbers, for example: 
6000123456789333, and inside of the folder are others files which I did not 
create.

Thanks for your help.
Exodus 15:26   And said,
If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God,
and wilt do that which is right in his sight,
and wilt give ear to his commandments,
and keep all his statutes,
I will put none of these diseases upon thee,
which I have brought upon the Egyptians:
for I am the LORD that healeth thee.
It's Your Choice! Alt+C.
Regards, Elder Thomas Williamson.

Re: [Blind-Computing] trying to help a friend with computer issues

2012-04-27 Thread Kevin Andrews

Hello,

First of all, remove Norton. In my experience it made the machine lag 
and was generally a pain in the ass. I use Microsoft security essentials 
and recommend it to all Windows users. It's so unobtrusive as it just 
runs in the background. As for WLM, once she familiarizes herself with 
the program it doesn't require two many things in the way of shortcuts 
or commands. It's quite a simple layout. What version is she using? 2009 
or the more recent versions with the ribbon?


Hope this helps!

[Blind-Computing] problems opening files in microsoft access

2012-04-27 Thread Norman King
Hi.

I am having problems opening files in Microsoft access.

When I open windows explorer and go to the file and press enter it creates
another file with the same name as the file I want to open with the file
extension of .laccdb.

Any idea what's wrong?

Hi, everyone,

For some strange reason openbook 7.0 stopped working with my computer. When 
I tried to scan an envelope to see what the address was, there was no 
response. The guy from adaptive voice had set my computer to a higher 
resolution since I now have a flat screen monitor but I don’t know what to 
make of this. It’s frustrating. Any help with solving this problem will be 
very much appreciated.

Thanks very much in advance.
