Well, for the benefit of others, JS_ installer seems to come bundled with tons of unrelated software that you probably don't want. And, it is slightly less than clear how to refuse the extra offers. Alt+f4 will not close the installer. These irregularities caused me to think this might not be a good option. Stuff like that doesn't make it onto my computer. -----Original Message----- From: jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dang Manh Cuong Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2014 5:25 AM To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: Scripts Installers Hi The site URL is no longer available.
