I have it set to run quick scans daily, and it is totally unobtrusive. A quick scan takes about 5 minutes on my system, and a full scan about an hour. It is totally JAWS accessible and has the simplest user interface of any anti-malware program I've used. You can essentially set it and forget it, because it updates itself automatically. I can't comment on its malware detection ability, other than what I have read in reviews, which has generally been very positive. You can use MSE in conjunction with Super Anti-Spyware, Malware Bytes and online anti-malware scanners like Bit Defender, F-Secure and Trend Micro Housecall. Good job by MS.

Hello All versions of windows 7 are accessible with Jaws 10. It works very well with the latest jaws 10, except for some minor issues. For example, jaws 10 does not work with the calculator in win7 the list system tray icons function does not work properly and there are also some minor issues with combo boxes that I hope is fixed in version 11. Also, as to which version to upgrade to, if u're not using win7 in a business environment, home premium is probably the way to go.

Re: [JAWS-Users] windows vista, any good?
If you're going to get Vista, I would suggest disabling UAC, or user account control as it's really an annoyance. Basically what it does is asks permission before you can run any program. I also found that Jaws tends to hang in the UAC dialog, so I would just disable it right away and save yourself all the hastle. I think in general Vista is more complicated. The layout of menus and things like the control panel is really something that would make more sense to a sighted person. On 10/6/09, Hans Pauli Sundstein h...@hapasu.dk wrote: Hi David. In about 14 days, Windows 7 will be released, and shortly after that will be boundled with new computers, and it works much easyer than Vista does. If the software you own, and want to be installed on it, is older than from year 2003, you can not be sure of compatibility with the new operating system, but sometimes it works eventhough that it is older, while the programmers has done theire work well. You can use Windows 7 with Jaws 10, but it works best with Jaws 11, because there is some things that Jaws 10 not is able to acces in the right way.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 11 Public beta 3 posted
I do agree, iTunes 9 does work a lot better with this latest beta version. Even the issue with having to do a shift tab and then tab in order for podcasts to be read correctly has been fixed. I'm still noticing however, that when going up a list of tracks or even in the browser boxes (genre, artist, etc) jaws still says not selected and repeats the same line of information for the previous track instead of the new one. This bug has always been there. Hopefully though it too can be addressed with the final release. Also, often when tabbing through iTunes and when I wish to do a shift tab, jaws goes forward instead of back. This is pretty frequent and can get somewhat frustrating when you wish to go in one direction, but you're taken in the other even when you're pressing the proper key combinations. Again though, this issue has been present in past versions of jfw. All in all, a good clean up with iTunes, but those are the two main problems I'm still noticing that have always been there. It would be great if they too could finally be fixed.

Alternatively, you can download the full build from the Freedom Scientific page above or the download page for JAWS and install it directly. It does not require that the earlier versions were installed. If they were, you can just install this one right over top. As with the previous two versions of JAWS 11 Public Beta, it will work fully functional provided you have JAWS 10 or higher authorization installed. Otherwise, it work as an evaluation copy requiring a reboot every 40 minutes. We thank everyone that participated in the Beta process. There were hundreds of reports which have lead to a very solid version of JAWS. We are in the final days of adjustments now and on track for an October 21st final release.

Ok, it says that the message preview in outlook 2007 has been fixed in Beta 3, However, I have 2 machines running outlook 2007 and it don't work on either one. AT least now it's not telling me that every message has an attachment. The first Machine is an Acer notebook with Vista home premium and the second is a Dell with XP home.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Creating Text Boxes
I have Word 2000, so it may not be the same. On the insert menu, go to text box and hit enter. I haven't a clue how to move them around, though--unless cut/paste would do it. Good luck!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Upgrading To Windows 7
Do any of you know if Windows 7 will work with JAWS version 9.0.2169? Dickson Tan dickson.j...@gmail.com wrote: Hello All versions of windowsare accessible with Jaws 10.

[JAWS-Users] Braille displays and JAWS.
Hello guys and gals. I have a focus 40 display that I would like to learn how to input from the display instead of the standard keyboard, or along with the standard keyboard. However, I've never been lucky enough to learn computer Braille. Where can one Find the info to learn how to do this. As far as the letters go, I can type them, but I need to learn how to input punctuations and such. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Jimmy, there are two publications available at National Braille Press. One is something like Computer Braille Code and the other has Computer Braille in the title. One costs something like $7 or $5, and the other is often free. Check them out.
