Everyone uses Windows a little differently, though.  I have a sighted
daughter who uses this computer, and she likes the Desktop shortcuts.  Since
they don't interfere with JAWS, I don't worry about them much.  And as I
described in an earlier message, it's fairly easy to access them yourself
for things such as starting JAWS.

I find I just don't use the desk top icons. The only ones I have showing are
the Recycle sBin, My Documents and My Computer. ----- Original Message -----
