Re: [JAWS-Users] Help with Avast V5 and Jaws

2010-02-22 Thread Gerald Levy


Hi Elaine,

You can download free Microsoft Security Essentials directly from the web 
site below.  Under the heading, "First Look: Microsoft Security Essentials 
Impresses", select one of the three links corresponding to your OS: XP 32 
bit, Vista/7 32 bit or Vista/7 64 bit.  Your download will start 
immediately.  Installation and set up are simple and straightforward, and 
there are no special configuration issues to deal with like with Avast. 
Best of all, MSE is totally JAWS accessible and has been ranked among the 
best anti-virus programs at malware detection in recent tests.

Hi, hate to tell you this, but the new Avast V5 Free Edition is not
accessible at all with Jaws for the most part.  Most of us have switched
over to Microsoft Security Essentials which is quite accessible with 
Jaws.
I heard that Alwil Software is working on a version of Avast that is 
blind

friendly, so we shall see what becomes of that.

[JAWS-Users] Help with Avast V5 and Jaws

2010-02-21 Thread Elaine
Hi guys

my apologies if this question has been asked before, I've recently upgraded to 
Avast V 5 and am running jaws V9.

I was able before the upgrade to use avast after changes had been made to the 
GUI.

unfortunately I cant appear to change any options within this version of avast. 
 jaws cant see the window and is very limited when trying to read the page with 
the jaws cursor.  I can see some links I think they are for various options 
such as changing graphical mode for example, but I cant appear to get to it.

does anyone know if it can be altered to allow me to use the program? or is it 
time to go find an alternative anti virus that will work with jaws.

any help or advice would be appreciated.

thanks in advance

Elaine

It's doable, but it will require  use of the Jaws cursor.
1. right-click on the Avast icon in the system tray.
2. Click  On-access protection Control
3. Use the Jaws cursor to select Internet Mail.
4. Tab and activate the Details button.
5. Tab and activate the Customize button.
6. Use the Jaws cursor to select the SMTP tab.
7. Enable the "Insert a note into a clean message" check box.
8. Tab and select the OK button on this window and the next window.
9. All done.

Hi,
No, it scans email by default, not all antivirus programs put in such
messages at the end of email.
