Several times, I opened the Malware Bytes application and navigated around the window. Later I discovered the program was running scans when I was in the window; however, I don't know what I did to cause this event to occur. You may have to have some sighted assistance to schedule scans; I don't remember if I was able to schedule them independently. Try using the OCR function in JAWS when you find instances of no text being read by JAWS.

[JAWS-Users] mystery solved about messages but don't know how to keep it from happening again
Hi, all, I've been mentioning and complaining for weeks about not getting messages from this list. Well, I checked my webmail with att.net/bellsouth.net, and guess what? It flagged the jaws list mail and the skype English mail as spam. I had to check it as not spam and get it to put it in my in box so the messages would download. I'm not sure how to fix this permanently as I don't want to go in every so often and do this but until I know different, I might not have a choice. Thanks and have a blessed day.

[JAWS-Users] how to sort outlook message so current messages will be at bottom and old messages at top
Hi, I want to sort my messages in outlook where the oldest ones will be at the top and newest will be at the end of the list where I'll press home to find oldest messages and end to find newest messages. I had it like that until I experimented with sorting by subject and individual recipient. When I put the arrangement back on date, it reversed the order of my messages where the newest ones are at the top and oldest at the bottom and I want it fixed back.

[JAWS-Users] possible disappearing folders in outlook 2010
Hi, all, I feel stupid bringing this up but about a month ago, I created two new folders in outlook 2010 to accommodate email messages I wanted to keep a copy of for reference later on my laptop. When I hit control y in jaws 15 today to see about the folders, they were not a part of the list. Unfortunately, since I thought I'd have easy access to the folders by hitting a letter, I failed to remember their names, and guess what, now, I can't find the folders anywhere. I guess I didn't need the folders enough if I did this but the folders seemed to create successfully, so where did they go? Any ideas? Thanks and have a blessed day.

[JAWS-Users] jaws and flash
Hi, all, as people put more and more flash content on their websites, they make things less and less accessible to jaws users. This is very frustrating particularly since it appears that youtube is one of the sites among many others whose creators have elected to use something very inaccessible to screen readers. Is there something I do not know about jaws that I can use as far as keystrokes or something like that to get around this problem? I've been using jaws since 1998, so if I am missing something, I am open to learning something new.
