Re: [JAWS-Users] VIPRE's usability

2015-03-04 Thread John M.
You have the option to download the latest version of Jaws and use it in 
demo mode whenever you have to interact with Viper. It may not be optimal, 
but it should help you out in the meantime.

Hi Mario,

I am still using Vipre 2015, and since the last update of JAWS 16, I now 
can

access the schedules to set Vipre up to scan at specific times, choose the
type of scan that I want, and Vipre announces to me when it starts a scan.
There is an icon in the notification area that always tells you of Vipres
condition, whether it is updated or not, which it ddoes automatically, and
it shows the last date and time that the definition update took place. I 
can
also access the quarantine, view the threats that were detected, and 
delete
them if so desired. This is as much as I have been to do with any 
Antivirus

program since using JAWS,and all that I have ever been able to do with
Vipre. All other settings, i.e. the firewall etc. are accessible too. I do
not know if Freedom Scientific is working directly with Threat Track
Security, but things got much better with this last JAWS update. Just my
observations, not meant to upset anyone.

sI'm still using the 2014 version because of it's interface is somewhat
screen reader friendly, more than what I experienced in the past.

I think there's a distinction to make between a program being accessible
versus being screen reader friendly, in that a program that is screen 
reader
friendly allows a blind user to utilize that program more effectively 
rather

than that program just being accessible, which does not promote useability
by the blind user. especially with a security suite, one has to respond in 
a

timely manner, and for blind users, we need to be able to do the same. the
more screen reader friendly a program is, the more frequently a blind user
will use said program.

I welcome any thoughts, but not to much as to upset the moderators.

Hi James,

I use Vipre Internet Security, and I also run MalWare Bytes along with it. 
I

cannot say that it is absolutely necessary to run both, but I have had
Malware Bytes find things that Vipre did not, and they both are good
products. As far as being compatible, they do work well together, but you
must install Vipre first, as it will remove any other antivirus/malware
software it finds on your computer during its installation. Vipre 2015 was

I don't even think the vipre team cares much they are just telling you what 
you want to hear.  I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for them to make any 
changes.

yeah, well, I'm stuck at JAWS 14, so I'm waiting for word that the
programmers who were working on making VIPRE 2015 work better with screen
readers didn't give up and quit.

Hi Mario,

I am still using Vipre 2015, and since the last update of JAWS 16, I now can
access the schedules to set Vipre up to scan at specific times, choose the
type of scan that I want, and Vipre announces to me when it starts a scan.
There is an icon in the notification area that always tells you of Vipres
condition, whether it is updated or not, which it ddoes automatically, and
it shows the last date and time that the definition update took place. I can
also access the quarantine, view the threats that were detected, and delete
them if so desired. This is as much as I have been to do with any Antivirus
program since using JAWS,and all that I have ever been able to do with
Vipre. All other settings, i.e. the firewall etc. are accessible too. I do
not know if Freedom Scientific is working directly with Threat Track
Security, but things got much better with this last JAWS update. Just my
observations, not meant to upset anyone.

sI'm still using the 2014 version because of it's interface is somewhat
screen reader friendly, more than what I experienced in the past.

I think there's a distinction to make between a program being accessible
versus being screen reader friendly, in that a program that is screen reader
friendly allows a blind user to utilize that program more effectively rather
than that program just being accessible, which does not promote useability
by the blind user. especially with a security suite, one has to respond in a
timely manner, and for blind users, we need to be able to do the same. the
more screen reader friendly a program is, the more frequently a blind user
will use said program.

I welcome any thoughts, but not to much as to upset the moderators.

   I installed vipre antivirus 2015 and I found that even with jaws 16
vipre only work partially.  jaws can announce the buttons of operation but
not the progress of the virus scan.  I also had problems accessing the
settings to tell vipre how to behave, I couldn't enter the settings.  vipre
2015 may work to prevent viruses but a I didn't know what was going on when
it was working.

Hi James,

I use Vipre Internet Security, and I also run MalWare Bytes along with it. I
cannot say that it is absolutely necessary to run both, but I have had
Malware Bytes find things that Vipre did not, and they both are good
products. As far as being compatible, they do work well together, but you
must install Vipre first, as it will remove any other antivirus/malware
software it finds on your computer during its installation. Vipre 2015 was
not very JAWS compatible but the latest update of JAWS did make it more
compatible, and I find that it works well now.
