Hi Michael, A couple of comments on this. First, I thought, from all I've read about the new Microsoft Defender suite of protective services, that though it may have been free during a Beta test period, it's going to be about $50 a year to keep updated. Or is that yet a slightly different new Microsoft service that includes Defender but also some other things? Also, the slang expression for "also" is "to boot," not "to hoot," unless you were joking around or having a bad typing day and rushing through your spell check, as happens to me every day. It's nice to know that Defender works nicely with Jaws. Thanks for the report.

It works well too, both in detecting spyware and usability with Jaws. And it's free to boot! Michael ----- Original Message ----- From: "G.W.
