Hello Peter,
I agree with you when it comes to Mcafee. I do have one question though. In
your last posting, what did you mean when you said, Make sure that JAWS
cursor is set to unrestricted. I ask this because, when Mcafee is doing a
update, I can't do anything. And I can't help but wonder if this could have
something to do with it...

I use Macaffee and I find it works the best when getting rid of viruses.
However it is frustrating that it doesn't give any audio indication that it
has popped up a prompt. These appear to the right hand side of the screen
and you would never know they are using JAWS. once you know they are there,
you can use the JAWS cursor to find the prompt and then use a mouse click to
click on the relevant option, but it's not that easy. You also need to make
sure the JAWS cursor is set to unrestricted otherwise I find I get stuck by
the system clock and can't move it anywhere.
Apprently AGP doesn't get rid of a lot of viruses, but if it's free it's
worth considering I think. The biggest thing which gets in the way with
Macaffee is the firewall if you have that installed.
