Hi Robin, You will need to download and install the latest version of Skype which is 3.8. You can get it from the following link: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/download/skype/windows/ After installing Skype I suggest that you download and install Doug Lee's Skype scripts for Jaws from: http://users.visi.com/~dgl/skype/ You need revision 653 of the scripts. Once you have these scripts installed, you can press JawsKey+h to hear the most important keystrokes. There are a number of settings which will help to keep you from being bothered by strange people out there on the internet and improve your experience of Skype itself but these are probably better dealt with at a later date. You will need to check that your microphone works correctly which you can do by typing "echo123" without the quotes in to the address line of Skype and pressing the enter key to make a call to an automated service which will allow you to speak for ten seconds, after which your message will be played back to you, giving you the chance to check that others will be able to hear you when you call them. When you need further help with the settings, come back to the list or mail me directly and I'll try to help.

I know that this topic has been discussed over and over before but at the time I did not have it on my computer so the information was not useful to me at the time of the discussion. Now I have decided to have Skype on my computer and I was wondering what short cut keys are available for using JAWS with Skype. I thought that there was something about scripts whether if you had to create scripts for skype to work with JAWS but I am not sure so I think that it would be interesting to try out but before I do this I would appreciate knowing some short cut keys for JAWS so I can use the program. I have Windows Vista Home Premium on my computer along with the last update for JAWS in version 9. So any help would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.
