Hi David,
You can download it here:
http://www.download.com/Ares-P2P/3000-2196_4-10454106.html?tag=lst-0-5
This is what I've found, just so you know. You go ahead and download this
free version. If you decide you'd like to purchase the Pro version, you'll
have that option when you run Ares P2P. Here's the other interesting thing
I've found. The version of this software you download on their homepage
(www.aresp2p.net) appears to be different than the version they offer on
Download.Com. The version you get from Download.Com, which by the way is the
link I included at the very top of this email, does not appear to install any
adware. On the other hand, if you download the software off the homepage, you
get some annoying adware installed on your computer. Needless to say, download
the version that is on Download.Com. What I did was went ahead and uninstalled
the adware filled version and installed the clean version that I got off of
Download.Com. Now it would appear the only major differences between the free
and pro versions is that you get more search results and faster downloads.
However, I'm still hesitent to buy this Pro version because the makers of this
software have not answered any of my emails. That's an issue with me because
if I went ahead and purchased the Pro version and came upon a problem, I don't
know if I could count on these guys. Anyhow, if you decide to go ahead and buy
the Pro version anyway, let everyone here on the list know how it works for
you. We'd all like to know! In the meantime, I'm going to keep this free
version. At least now, I don't have to worry about the adware and I have
something that works very nicely with Jaws.
Michael

Hi,
Ares P2P doesn't have any toolbars. It uses the menu bar, and the
interface does include a few buttons such as Search, Stop Search, Search More,
and a list of radial buttons. I'll agree that you do have to use and route the
Jaws cursor but I don't find it to be cumbersome or too inconvenient.

That's nice. I'm also using it. But, it is more useful if you use a
script? What do you think?
How do you click the items in the tool bars? I think, you need to use
the rout to JAWS to pc to enable JAWS announce the items in the tool bar.

Hi,
No, I haven't found any scripts. To tell you the truth, I haven't found
a need for them. Jaws seems to work pretty well without it.

Hi Everybody,
I had mentioned before how I liked Ares P2P as an Jaws accessible P2P
application. While that's still true, I can't recommend anyone purchasing the
Pro version. I've sent a couple of emails with questions to the makers of the
software and I've yet to get a response from them. I wanted them to answer my
questions first before I purchased the Pro version from them. It's too bad
too because I really like the software. While the free version works very
well, it installs adware and I don't care for that at all. Oh well, back to
the drawing board I guess.
Michael
