I think Windows Live Messenger would be the best one with the most support. 
There is a jaws help topic one can read, and all the hot keys are listed 
under insert H, along with verbosity options with insert V.  You have to 
sign up for a Microsoft Passport account, but it walks you through the 
process, and you can use your existing E-mail address.

I'm sure I can; I've simply never had training in how to use them. Is
there any explanation of how to install the programs and the list of
keyboard commands to use them? I'm up for any and all of them.

Why can't she just use any of the standard messenger programs such as
Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, or AIM, all of which work fine
with JAWS and or Zoomtext?

I recently became acquainted with someone who is deaf blind. We'd like
to communicate utilizing some sort of messaging/talk protocol. This
friend still has reading vision (she's going blind with Ushers), so she
uses Zoom Text. I'm running Jaws and Internet Explorer. Is there any
type of IM protocol I can easily read with Jaws? If so, where can I get
the software and a tutorial?

Thanks,

Kim
