  Hello Dreamer!

  you ask;
  Using the script installation instructions you sent, do I have to unzip the 
scripts before pasting them in the Explore my settings folder or does windows
  do that some where along the way for me?

  well, if you want the Windows unzipping utility to unzip the files for you, 
you will need to know the exact path in which the script files will be placed.
  however, if you don't know the exact path,
  you can;

  2. Find the script file on your computer and hit enter on it.
  3. It should bring up a separate window listing the files contained in the 
zip file.  You should be able to arrow up and down within this list of files.
  4. Hit control+A to select all items in this list.
  5. Hit control+C to copy the list of files to the clip board.

  now just follow the rest of the steps, posted before.
  hope this helps ya.

      Installing Scripts with Windows XP Using XP's Unzipping Utility

      For Scripts for Jaws 6 or above:

      1. If you have not already, please down load the script file to your 
computer.   
      2. Find the script file on your computer and hit enter on it.
      3. It should bring up a separate window listing the files contained in 
the zip file.  You should be able to arrow up and down within this list of 
files.
      4. Hit control+A to select all items in this list.
      5. Hit control+C to copy the list of files to the clip board.
      6. Hit the windows key for your start menu, Hit P for all programs.
      7. Hit J until you hear the current version of Jaws you are running, hit 
enter.
      8. You should hear, explore Jaws submenu, hit enter.
      9. You should hear, explore my settings, hit enter.
      10. This will open up a window, which is the directory where Jaws scripts 
should be put.  It should tell you the name of the first item in the list and
      that it is not selected.  You want it not selected!  So if you 
accidentally hit a key which will select the item, then just hit F5 to unselect 
the item.
      11. Hit control +V to paste the script files into the necessary directory.
      12. Your done!  Now you have at least two windows open, hit alt+F4 to 
close out of each window.
