One question I have about MSE is: does it scan incoming e-mail? I understand
that it doesn't. If it does, that would be good news for me.
Thank you.

Avast is not as JAWS friendly as Microsoft Security Essentials. And in a
recent comparison test among 16 leading anti-virus programs, MSE outscored
Avast at malware detection.

First, I wanted to chime in and let those with Avast know that the same
warning message came when I started my computer. Don't know what's going on
there but am hoping not to see that again. Avast seems to be the most
Jaws-friendly of the antivirus programs.
On to my question: I am learning how to tolerate Windows Live Mail, since
I'll be using it until my XP machine returns. I like reading mail in HTML
because when you read it in plain text and go to next message it doesn't say
who it's from. But when I do read in HTML and hit delete so the next message
can begin, it seems Jaws gets tired after reading about 3 or 4 messages and if
I hit insert escape to refresh screen it works fine. In other words, the email
is open and I hit delete, but it gets silent on next message and
screen-refreshing makes it talk again. But after reading a few messages fine I
find I'm screen-refreshing at the beginning of the rest of the messages. I
know F.S. really doesn't have a set list of recommendations yet for Windows 7,
and I also notice that when I installed Jaws it did put me to a basic windows 7
theme so it apparently knows which theme Jaws works best in. But do you think
screen resolution should be changed so I won't have to keep refreshing the
screen while reading mail, or do you think a program like Auto Sizer might help
whatever is causing Jaws to not respond to the screen after awhile? If
changing the screen resolution is the answer (right now it's 1024/768),
wouldn't changing the screen resolution also change the workable theme that
F.S. has recommended for Windows 7? I know if theme gets changed Jaws reads
horribly so not sure what to do.
Thanks for any help.
