No it is beta software
See the below
The following was taken from
http://gwmicro.com/Window-Eyes/Beta/wineyes61beta1readme.htm
5. GW Micro and its affiliates are not responsible for any damage or data
loss that might occur as a result of testing this software. Remember, this
is
a beta. This is not a final release and should be treated as such. This beta
software has been made available for your continued input regarding the
features
and stability that Window-Eyes is most notable for.
6. It is not a requirement that you use this software. Rather, it is a
choice. We value your feedback and opinions. It should be noted, however,
that by
feedback and opinions, we mean reports on the features that we already have.
We're not looking for new feature suggestions, as the specifications for
Window-Eyes
6.1 are already complete. Instead we would like you to comment on whether
what we say works actually works or not. Spend some time trying each of the
new
features to make sure that Window-Eyes still delivers the most "Rock Solid"
performance. We're not a "release candidate today/production tomorrow" kind
of company. Your feedback and testing on the current features and issues of
Window-Eyes 6.1 Beta 1 are what determines the success of this program.
Comments
should be sent to
support@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi note window eyes does not afishaly support vista.  It is a beta relax
guys fs is not going to drop the ball.  Fs will have vista out shortly.  My
guess is with in a week or two.  Remember gw micro is releceing a public
beta.  Now I would argue and say that fs should do the same how ever they
have chosen not to.

As far as I know, JAWS is not officially supported under Windows Vista.  To
my knowledge, the  only screenreaders that officially support Vista are
Window-eyes, Hal, and I dunno if you'd even count this as a an official
screenreader, but Freedom Box System Access is also supported under Vista.
It's too bad that FS appears to have dropped the ball on this one. If you're
a JAWS user and you want Vista, you're screwed.
