Hi Tom,

Try looking for Mozilla Firefox.  That's the way it's listed in Start Menu / 
All Programs.  Hope this helps.
Take care.

   It's like if you were eating spaghetti, would you use a spoon or a fork?

   Maybe, but I don't want two web browsers on my computer, one should be
   enough.

   The JAWS commands for Firefox are the same as Internet Explorer. 
Basically
   web navigation commands, there all there in the help files of JAWS, 
Insert
   +
   J, H, J...

   I don't want Firefox for one chore only, I have used IE since whenever 
it
   was available, am familiar with its commands.

   Do you have firefox? If yes, instal the add on for it called webvism, it 
is
   a great tool for the blind to help solve captcha's on websites. It takes 
3
   to 5 seconds to give you the result.
  
   The site to them is: http://www.webvisum.com/

   Is there anyone who can understand the Google audio CAPTCHA?  Honestly, 
we
   spent forever trying to hear it one afternoon, never got it write and no
   one
   seemed to be answering the phone the one time we tried.  I don't play 
phone
   tag well.
   Partial hearing loss in the ear most of you use on the phone, can't seem 
to
   hold it on the opposite shoulder while I am typing so calling is my
   absolute
   last resort and usually I just forget what it was I may have been trying 
to
   do rather than call.  I hate CAPTCHA!  Google's in my opinion is one of 
the
   worst I have heard and my husband said he can't read it either.
  
   I would not use Google at all any longer, if I were not required to do 
so
   at
   work.  They play at accessibility but don't take it seriously, just look 
at
   all the clutter on the home page.

Here you go with some quick instructions on creating a gmail account

NOTE: the same username and password can be used on all your google
accounts, i.e. youtube, google maps, google documents etc.

1. Go to www.gmail.com
2. Click enter on the link: Create an account
3. On the next page fill out the form with appropriate details requested
Edit boxes by typing the fields, Check boxes by space barring on them, list
boxes and combo boxes, you know how they need to be done
4. There will be a challentge in filling the username field, if the username
already exists it will tell you that it does, and give you combinations of
usernames you may want to choose - use the up and down arrow keys to toggle
the options, enter to select, if they are not what you wish you need to type
in a new one again in the text box, check again if the username is not
already taken.
5. Use the audio captcha, or request a phone verification
6. Check the checkboxes and hit enter on the next button

Sorry did not get further from this as I did not want to create another
gmail account. If you run into any mess, mail me back at: mujta...@gmail.com

Cheers!

Hi all!

I've seen the subject of Gmail, but I wasn't interested at the time.  
I'm having a difficult time trying to create a gmail account.  Did 
anyone give any tips for this?  If this is a repeat, you can write me 
off list.  There are some email lists I might want to subscribe to, and 
I'd like to use it as an email service in the future if it still works well.


Thanks!
