Hi, I've tried this add-on and, I have to agree with you, it's brilliant! I was 
able to retrieve my Yahoo! ID so that I can reset my password, which I could 
also do successfully, and now I can access Yahoo! all without sighted 
assistance. Just my comments there on the 
fantastic Webvisum add-on. Enjoy!

Hi All

I'm sure Steve won't mind me passing this on, as it is potentially useful 
for a lot of blind people, especially with those annoying capture problems. 
This ad in for firefox works really well, and enables a blind person to 
successfully use captures.

Thanks.

Terry
