Hi Derek,
You should be able to find a good version of the Adobe reader on the list

Here's a hot tip:
If you are only using the reader, then there is really no need to update,
especially if you aren't having any problems.
In the case of most software, this is a good reason not to enable
Hi List,
I have installed the new accessibility version update of Adobe 9 and it appears

Hi, all,
I'm trying to use this player, and it looks excellent. However, I cannot find
a list of hot keys. I go into the preferences menu and try to pull up the

Some of these problems being experienced are, unfortunately, down to JAWS.
In the case of Firefox 3, we can point to how it is so recent that we
haven't had a JAWS update since its release as a full version. (Now it is
possible, David, that if you tried - if you haven't yet done so - the

You can freely update to JAWS7.10, and that will improve the experience for
you whether in Firefox or in IE. However, I find that JAWS navigation is
easier in IE. there are some exciting add-ons to Firefox, though, which may
make people's lives on the internet easier.
