Hi Listers, first of all MERRY CHRISTMAS: I find the SAPI voices incomprehensible, so I removed the program via the add-remove programs within the control panel options. The computer prompts tell me the program is gone, but when I do the read all down command I still hear one of the creepy SAPI voices. Aside from doing the alternative alt+insert+down-arrow to hear the eloquence voice can any of you tell me how to get rid of this one remaining voice. PS I have done a complete removal and reinstall of Jaws 8.0 and that did not help. Your help andtech wisdom will be greatly appreciated. THE SORSERERS APPRINTUS
