I don't know that you can use Safari with Windows. The reason the accessibility 
works in all provability (and I could be wrong) is because Apple has built in 
the screen reading capabilities of the computer with their VoiceOver. Is this 
usable with the narrator in the accessibility section of Windows, or do the 
newer computers even still have that?
