I've never played around with sounds, but could it be created through the JAWS dictionary? Make an entry for the text that comes up when a scan finishes, use the same words for the replacement words, and then tab over to the sound option? Just a guess. _____ From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Farfar Carlson Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 7:05 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Where is the "Sounds Schemes Setting"?

Dear Sam and friends, This is a great idea! Never thought of creating a "Sound" when the scan is complete! I wonder if there is an option in the "Sounds Schemes" that one can select to play a wav file? But it has been such a long time since I set up all my sounds, "Delete", "open" etc., etc., I forgot how to do this! Where does one go to find their Sound Schemes settings? Thanks!

Smiles. I've noticed the system tray thing. I meant like a sound or something. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill White <mailto:billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 5:27 PM Subject: Re: Anti-virus - AVG / MS Essentials Hi, Samara. I haven't used MS Essentials, but when I used AVG, there was always something in the system tray that would let me know a scan is in progress. If that doesn't work, try ALT+TAB to see if there is a virus scan window available.

Laughs. I set it for when I'll be getting ready for bed. While I'm reading, I'll let it scan and turn it off before I'm done. I just wish I had a way of knowing when the scan ended. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill White <mailto:billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 4:58 PM Subject: Re: Anti-virus - AVG / MS Essentials Yes, it is OK to have everything (scans and updates) happen at the same time. It is best to have them happen when you won't be using the computer for disk drive and processor-intensive operations. While scanning and updating, AVG will slow your computer down, and your JAWS may also lose focus in the window you want it to be in.

Yes you must use the jaws cursor, but very easy that way to negotiate anything! Most folks will not agree with me, but I simply do not trust the same people who allowed such security holes or cracks in your Operating System, (Microsoft) to give you something to stop viruses, mal ware, spy ware! And mark my words, it will not be "Free" forever, just till Microsoft believe they have captured the market, destroyed the anti-virus program manufacturers, then they shall drop the bomb shell that it will now cost you! LOL! An old marketing trick! I shall keep this message, so I can say "I told you so"! AVG has never let me down,! You can purchase a AVG Disk which comes with a 2 year subscription to New definitions, Off-The-Shelf, in any computer store for $29, cheaper than on their Web Site! Why cheaper purchased in a store, I have no idea! But it updates twice a day, and I trust it completely!

I have AVG 9.0 free on my computer. I've heard it's accessible, and it is to a certain extent, but it's all jaws cursor. Is that how it's supposed to be? I'd ask about it slowing down jaws, but I think that's just because it makes the entire computer crawl. I've also heard about MS Essentials. Some of you have recommended it. I tried it on my laptop when one care was discontinued, but windows security didn't seem to recognize that there was protection on the computer and kept giving me warnings. I've a desktop now, windows XP, jaws 10, and I just wanted to know before I made a decision to either switch AVG scans to late at night when they won't interfere with me or to switch completely to ms essentials, is that normal? For the windows security manager not to recognize ms essentials? Does it run that quietly? And how do I know for certain that it's working if I keep getting warnings? Thanks so much.
