thanks Norman you must be tired Someone on this list suggested sending a
RNib standard letter a while ago. I have plenty but if you read it it says
the person sending this believes you have failed to ect, so I thought it
best to find out the Legal position I had already phoned Kaspersky myself
not heard back. The reason it took so long was 1 Liz in London is away, 2
Mrs Murphy of the DlS Disability Law service is on holiday for a couple of
months.
Brian must have forgotten I have used Avg for 2 years, it was just the
local small company told me how good it was when they had cleaned off my
laptop, it is best to know the exact legal position before letters are
sent. So Persuasion is all that is left and the Product is made in Russia.
So often on this list we are asked about antivirus products and Jaws well
now we know the legal position which is disapointing of course Dorothy

Hi Brian and All,
Too keep this on topic, yes I have tried to read the program with the Jaws
curser with little effect. I did write to the producers and asked them if
it would be possible for some Jaws scripts to be written. They informed
me they would look at it but I heard no more.
Apparently this is a really good program but not accessible to us
unfortunately.
Norman.

Dear Dorothy and list:
Have you tried using your JAWS cursor to read the screens of
Kaspersky that have not been readable with JAWS?
One program I have found that works tolerably well with JAWS is:
AVG Internet Security Pro, Home Edition.
To make changes to scheduled tasks and other less frequently used
options you will need to use your JAWS cursor and left mouse
button, but for reading the scan report summary you just use your
PC cursor.
It scans for viruses, SPAM, spyware and has a built-in firewall.
Each option can be turned on or off upon installation or at a
later time.
You may download it from:
http://www.avg.com
It is a commercial program and you may purchase either just the
licenses you need or a two year license that permits up to three
computers to run it for US $90.
While some people don't like having one program that scans for
and deletes or heals all threats, I like it in that it is one
stop shopping and saves dealing with multiple sites for updates.
Regarding the Kaspersky you purchased, you may wish to ask the
people who sold it to you for a full refund of the purchase price
including V. A. T. Failing that, try asking the Kaspersky people
to modify their program to work well with JAWS. Some software
publishers will gladly do this without your demand being backed
by the force of law.
Hope this helps.
Brian
