[JAWS-Users] Re: a strange issue with the properties dialogue in IE and jaws
Just unload JAWS and restart it or reboot your computer. All that using the /default flag does is to load JAWS using only the files in the shared files folder, bypassing anything you've modified. To do the repair, put the 7.0 CD into your hard drive and allow it to autostart and select repair.

Also, note that the last item is preceded by a tilde and if you omit this, you'll get hits on every file in your computer, which you most definitely do _not_ want to do. Run this search and when it completes, press Control+A to select all, then the delete key and answer "Y" to the prompt asking if it's okay to delete everything. Then comes the really good part. Press Alt+F while still in the Find Files utility and save the search to your Desktop. From now on, you can run it regularly to clean up your disk.

[JAWS-Users] Re: jaws 8 and internet explorer
Leonard, I take it from your post that you're still using IE 6? Which OS are you running? Here's a problem I've encountered with JAWS 8 and IE 6: - I open IE - I open one of several links to personal financial institutions. - I use th e "F" command to move to the login prompts (i.e., User ID:). - I turn on "Forms Mode" in order to fill in the requisite information - I tab to the next field (usually "Password:"). - I hear the prompt "User Id:" instead of "Password: " (or whatever it should be). - I tab around to other (not necessarily form fields) and continue to hear "User ID:" instead of the true label for the link. This happens only I've gone into "Forms Mode," but once I do this all other links labels are no longer read appropriately. I'm using Windows 2000 Professional. FS is aware of this problem and it has been escalated via a trouble ticket. Personally, I do think FS does have their act together!

[JAWS-Users] Re: temp files
I ran into a minor problem using this terrific tip from Stu. It seems that Norton Anti-Virus has created a temp file named 044nav.tmp and when I tried to delete all the listed files I consistently got a Critical Error telling me that the file was in use (by Norton Anti Virus presumably). Yet when I turned off Auto Protect I was still unable to delete this file. The work-around I used was to select the file in question from the search list, arrow to the file listed directly above it and do a "Select all to the top" and then delete those. I then did a "Select all to the bottom" and deleted the remaining files. Now, what do I do with that dang Norton file -- it's a zero-length file by the way?

You can't delete that particular file because Norton uses it to do it's thing. I know because I formerly ran Norton myself.

[JAWS-Users] Re: temp files
That tip is one I discovered and that's an old list message that I sent to, I think, the JFWlite list years and years ago. While it may work under XP, it doesn't get everything. Also, I don't think that those instructions will work using the XP version of the Find utility, since it's been completely rewritten for XP. I've never seen an XP equivalent for this tip. What you _can_ safely do under XP is to delete the following folders on a regular basis. Don't worry--they'll be re-created when needed: C:\Windows\Temp\ C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Temp You could write a batch file that would run every time your computer starts that would delete these two folders. - Original Message - From: "Stu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "jaws" Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 9:17 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] temp files I use the following on my 98 machine, will it work also on a XP machine?

It seems that Norton Anti-Virus has created a temp file named 044nav.tmp and when I tried to delete all the listed files I consistently got a Critical Error telling me that the file was in use (by Norton Anti Virus presumably). Yet when I turned off Auto Protect I was still unable to delete this file. The work-around I used was to select the file in question from the search list, arrow to the file listed directly above it and do a "Select all to the top" and then delete those. I then did a "Select all to the bottom" and deleted the remaining files.

[JAWS-Users] My troubles with JFW 8.
Hi all. I just got my CD and installed jaws 8.0. I am happy with eloquence so I didn't mess with the extra voices. When I press the control key to stop jaws from talking there is that little bong sound indicating an error. But there is no error message, just the bong. Some times this happens at the end of a message in outlook express without my doing anything. When I run the spell checker in outlook express jaws says blank instead of saying the miss spelled word. Someone mentioned in passing on the handyman list that he was having the same trouble. As I type this I am running jaws 7.0. Last night I was using jaws 8 with MS word and suddenly it stopped reading everything. Up and down arrow or left and right arrow, all it would say was blank. Maybe it was swearing at me. Then when I pressed say all it crashed. I don't know about anyone else but I am beginning to give window eyes a good hard look. Regards. Max. K 4 O D S.

Well Donnie I'm going to point you in the right direction and then you are going to try and figure it out yourself. If you get stuck then come back for help, but I want you to take a shot at it first alone.The reason is you need to start developing some confidence in yourself man. Open up your start menu and go down to settings. Then open up your control panel and then find sounds and audio devices. Control tab one time and tab three times.

[JAWS-Users] our membership count
I knew that we would lose a lot of people in the transition but I must say that just over half have come over or rejoined the list since Friday. We were up to 249 and right now there are 126 subscribers all of which are active members. So it sure looks like this thing will continue in to the new year with a healthy amount of subscribers.

If you get stuck then come back for help, but I want you to take a shot at it first alone.The reason is you need to start developing some confidence in yourself man. Open up your start menu and go down to settings. Then open up your control panel and then find sounds and audio devices. Control tab one time and tab three times. Trust me the list will help you but but the goal of it is in my mind is for everybody to try it on their own first.

Can I delete tmp files? I've given this hint before and it's one of the really useful ones that I've picked up over the years. Open the Find Files utility and search for: *.tmp,*.chk,~*.* Note that the items are separated by a comma and no spaces. Also, note that the last item is preceded by a tilde and if you omit this, you'll get hits on every file in your computer, which you most definitely do _not_ want to do. Run this search and when it completes, press Control+A to select all, then the delete key and answer "Y" to the prompt asking if it's okay to delete everything. Then comes the really good part. Press Alt+F while still in the Find Files utility and save the search to your Desktop. From now on, you can run it regularly to clean up your disk. I've used this for a couple of years with no problems. The second thing I would advise is to download and run ad-aware and get rid of all of that spy crap in your computer.

The problem with almost any of these programs is that they very well may remove things that you _don't_ want removed. Some will remove the Internet Explorer history, for example, or _all_ cookies and I never want either deleted. - Original Message - From: "Alan & Terrie Robbins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 6:01 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Re: temp files Rick, Doesn't Disk Cleanup accomplish the same thing?

[JAWS-Users] Re: temp files
Al - This is/was Walt, not Rick. Most spyware and adware programs remove _dangerous_ cookies, but not _all_ cookies. Many cookies store preferences and other site-specific information that would have to be reset if all cookies were deleted. The spyware and adware programs know which ones to delete by name, but these other general cleanup programs aren't that intelligent. Just for example, the information about my Google.com preferences (how many hits to display, etc.) is stored in a cookie and it would be stupid to delete it and then have to re-enter the information every time I visit Google. You'll hear that all cookies should be removed weekly or whatever, but this is just the kind of misinformation that gets started and then, can't be stopped. - Original Message - From: "Alan & Terrie Robbins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 6:32 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Re: temp files Rick I believe the last time I ran a disk cleanup on Win XP it gave one many check boxes that could be check or uncheck depending on one's preference.
