[JAWS-Users] email registration recapcha

Re: [JAWS-Users] email registration recapcha
There are three programs for solving image captchas that work with JAWS. The most popular is a free add-on called Webvisum that works with Firefox and uses a proprietary algorithm for solving captchas. Once you install the Webvisum add-on, you press Alt-Control-numrow 6 on the page that contains the image captcha. Webvisum then solves it and returns the result on your clipboard ready to be pasted into the appropriate edit field. Another image solving program is called Rumola, which costs 99 cents a year. It works with both Firefox and IE, and uses sighted human operators to solve captchas. The third program is called Captcha Be Gone, which, like Rumola, uses human operators to solve captchas and works with Firefox and IE, and now Google Chrome as well. But it costs $33 a year, which is a steep price to pay if you only need to solve captchas on an infrequent basis.

[JAWS-Users] Accesibility of Panda Security Global Protection with Jaws 18
Dear list members, I am new to the list, but a veteran Jaws user both at work and at home. I recently had Pandas Security Global Protection antivirus software installed by a friend in my PC and found out that it is not accessible with Jaws. I wrote to VFO support and was referred to a webinar of June 2012, which helped me a little to at least access some info with the Jaws cursor, via Insert + - But no more than that. Said webinar wasn't too promising on antivirus software in general and even mentioned that older versions of some of them were more accessible than the last one or like in VIPRE, the other way around. But as said, that was June 2012. If anyone of you uses or has used Panda and has gotten further than me on its control, I will greatly appreciate your input. We like to be as independent as we possibly can, don't we ? By the way, Panda was mentioned among several antivirus programs by VFO as being JAWS compatible. Thanks a lot and kind regards Carlos Fischer Buenos Aires - Argentina For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] A Word Mystery
I'm using Office 365 and Jaws 18. When I get a document from this file sending service called Hightail, the Word document is shown to be in protected view. This is happening to me on two different machines. The files are not protected. I sent the file I received to the individual who sent it to me and they opened it and it was not a protected file that they saw. A friend of mine uses Thunderbird, it reads just fine. Any ideas?

Re: [JAWS-Users] A Word Mystery
I think that's an office thing. It thinks, for want of a better word, that the file may be unsafe, so, it's being opened in protected mode on your computer. I know there is a way to disable that, but don't know how to go about it. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Lynn White Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2017 7:14 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] A Word Mystery I'm using Office 365 and Jaws 18.

Re: [JAWS-Users] A Word Mystery
Protected view means that the document is being opened in safe mode, in other words, in a way that won't harm your computer if there's a virus or other malicious piece of code embedded in the document. It does not mean that it's protected from being tampered with. Tab around and look for a button that says allow editing, this will open the document up for reading.

Re: [JAWS-Users] A Word Mystery
In Microsoft Word's Preferences, there are actually multiple controls the setting of which determines under what circumstances protected View is invoked. I remember having to find more than one setting to turn off Protected View in Microsoft Word 2016. Start by going to File -> Options, then, in the General category, find "Open e-mail attachments and other uneditable files in reading view". Make sure this is not checked. Next, in the list of option categories, move down to "Trust Center", then tab across to the "Trust Center Settings" button. Select this button, which will open a list of categories. In my case, focus is placed on "Macro Settings". Move down once to "Protected View", then tab across to the checkboxes that let you turn protected view on or off for various files. For example, I made sure to turn "Enable protected view for outlook attachments" off. In fact, I turned them all off.

As Scorpio posted, this view is intended to protect against security breaches. The way to open individual protected files is so quick and easy that I'm happy to preserve my computer against possible corruption.
