Hi 
Now it is I who must say sorry.
I am the one who explained terms to begin with hopping to avoid
confuetion.  I guess that line started it so I must again say sorry.
Now on the subject of windows messenger I can not reproduce the problem
Chris describes.
Here in.
I will say this though the first thing you should do when starting
messenger or any other program with jaws is to press jaws key h to see
if there is a hot key help list.

Hey Dan
You are fine, trust me, you are.  You did *nothing* wrong, people 
just didn't read their e-mail carefully and just went nuts. Your
original question was quite proper for the list, and you had 
every right to ask the question.  Don't get bogged down in 
terms.  We'll be here all day arguing about semantics, proper terms 
to use if you do that.
I'll give you one final tip before we close this thread that started 
out ok, but thanks to a lot of people not paying attention has become 
quite rediculous. If you have problems reading the screen with 
windows messenger, give msn messenger 7.5 a try. Like I said, you can 
have both msn messenger 7.5 and Windows messenger installed and 
running at the same time, assuming of course that you have 2 
accounts, one for each one. You don't at the moment, but you might in 
the future. I've found personally that msn messenger 7.5 may read 
better with JAWS 7, so give that a try if Windows Messenger does not 
work to your liking.

Ok, hopefully that ends things here.
