[jaws-uk] Re: Thanks and more problems

Hi Barbara.

If there is someone who can assist you, I would be tempted to back up all 
important work and do a complete reformat, particularly if an attempt at a 
system restore does not solve the problem.  This does sound drastic I know but 
it will probably result in a system which runs faster anyway and you could end 
up spending quite a lot of time resolving the problems.

by the way, are there other members of the household that use the PC or is 
there only you?  These days, providing a system is up to date, much of the 
spyware is transmitted by people going to dodgy websites which run unwanted 
programs on the PC in various ways.  This can happen easily.  One way this can 
happen is if you accidentally misspell a website.

Anyway, good luck with system restore or even total reformatting.

Regards

Graham

Hi Barbara,  I think Tom's suggestion is good right now.

I don't want to sound like a profit of doom, but if you are getting bombed out 
of an AVG update, it could be a worry.  Likewise a JAWS update.

Have you tried simply updating AVG 7.5?  It is still being supported until the 
end of this year.

I would also suggest you do a Windows Update, and just go for the critical 
security updates.

If all else fails, it may be that you could go for a System restore, to a date 
prior to the present problems.

George.

Thanks to all who gave me advice re my PC problems. I am going to update all 
security software and give the PC a good clean and see what happens.

I have installed AVG 7.5 for now and am trying to update JAWS 9 so I can 
install AVG 8. Whenever I try to open the link Phil sent me to free AVG 8, the 
Internet closes, so not sure if the problem is me or then.

Also, I have downloaded the latest May JAWS 9 update but whenever I select the 
saved application and Enter on it nothing happens. If I use the JAWS Cursor and 
Left Mouse Button a rename file window appears.

Any ideas? I'm having one of those days when you wish computers had never been 
invented!
