Re: [JAWS-Users] malwarebytes 2.0315!
According to a knowledgeable techie on another list who has tried Malware Bytes 2.0.3, it is impossible to quarantine or remove any detected threats because this part of the program remains totally inaccessible. So while it may be possible to get MB 2.0.3 to perform a scan, there is apparently no way to remove any detected threats without sighted help. So unless somebody has been able to successfully quarantine or remove detected threats with MB 2.0.3, MB 1.75 remains the last fully accessible version.

Hi Mike List Members, Please don't assume that people don't try! I tried very hard to make MWb Pro work for me but, no matter what keystrokes or individual keys I pressed I could not get Premium to take a schedule for a scan or updating. Also, I could not get it to accept my licensing info. I have 2 licenses available it wouldn't take either 1. I emailed MWB support I was doing exactly as they said but, no go! I worked on the program for several days, at least 2 hours per day, just could not get to do what I needed it to do for me so, back to 1.75 I went. Please don't assume, whether it's me or anyone else, that because we have complained about its accessibility that we've expected something for nothing or that there was very little if any, effort put into trying to make this program work. The build I was working in was, 2.0.3.1025, if 2.0315 is a newer release then I need to give it another go. Also, I've never had any problems with Vipre but, these list's are comprised of many people with varying levels of Jaws / computer skills but, with this list having somewhere around 700 members at tops probbably around 10% that actually participate. Many people read the messages learn a great deal but, are afraid to write the list because they feel embarrassed to ask questions that might be easy for you or I but, are afraid of replies that tell them they aren't trying hard enough or. I get many such emails off list stating this very fact.

Re: [JAWS-Users] malwarebytes 2.0315!
Mike, Thanks for your reply, I agree with you 100%, and I do not expect everyone on this list to have the same degree of knowledge when it comes to computers and working with softwares that are at best, merely retrofitted to meet the needs of blind people. I want everyone to know, that I need just as much help with somethings as anyone else, and that I am always willing to lend a helping hand wherever I can. I first joined this list and a couple more similar ones to be able to learn some of the things that I did not understand, and it has been a great resource for me. But, I get the greatest reward from this and other lists by teaching someone else how to accomplish their goals. I post my email address at the bottom of every message that I write, and it is my hope that anyone needing help with something will contact me on or off list. I do not know it all, and if it is a subject that I am unfamiliar with, I will say so right up front, but will still try to head someone in the right direction to get their questions answered. If I do know the subject, then I will stick with the person to the very end to get them to where they feel like their inquiry has been answered. So, to everyone on the list, please do not hesitate to ask for my help with any questions that you might have, I promise that you will get no less than my honesty, and perhaps the answer that you were looking for.

Re: [JAWS-Users] malwarebytes 2.0315!
Hi Mike, I totally understand where you are coming from I'm sorry if I sounded like my rant was directed at you but, it was not! It's just so many factors can play into of what Jaws will report back to you, for instance, in these latest Windows operating systems screen resolution can play a big part in what you'll hear from window to window or, program to program a lot of people may not have the confidence to play around with these kinds of settings to see what will work best for their situation. There are those that might not know the difference between Landscape Portrait when making a screen resolution settings change speaking from experience the Landscape / Portrait selection can make a world of difference by itself. You know where I'm coming from , from reading your posts' I know you care are willing to help! I think people like lists' like this one because they get an answer from someone that experienced the same problem can relate to it, rather than someone saying, why don't you just Google it , getting a bunch computer lingo that they may not understand from their search will never get an understandable answer. Anyways, I enjoy reading your posts' have learned a lot from them but, remembering is a whole nuther issue! LOL, hahaha hahaha hahaha, LOL Take care.
