Well, now that I recall, I just let the program transfer its previous
settings into the version 7. Many of the settings options are on the
Tools tab, scanning options. (I had to use the JAWS cursor to navigate
through that and the other tabs such as help, etc.) Wonder if
virtualizing current window works anywhere in the help? It works in
some other windows in the program. have they re-introduced the menu
bar!?

My EZ antivirus version info reads:

So, it would seem that your version of 7 has improved over that one. I
find it impossible, for now, to access or modify the program options,
though i did do this when i installed it with the Options Wizard (or
what used to be called that). It is running when I start my computer
and I get a 're em vir la s checked" dialogue (or similar). My OS is
Windows Millennium. Same with both jaws 5 and jaws6. My sub runs out
towards the end of April. Should I try your version 7, and where do i
get it?

I uninstalled eTrust EZ Antivirus 6.1.4 from my Win98 SE system and
installed 6.4.04. Since this version is still using the 6.X user
interface,
there are no accessibility issues. I am no longer getting expiration
notices from the software.
I also had a chance to check out the various dialogs of eTrust EZ
Antivirus
7.1.192 that is running on my SystemMax XP home system with JFW 6.0.
All of
the controls in the dialogs seem to be accessible, and I am wondering if
Computer Associates has made user interface changes since V.7.0 was
released. The only problem I am having is with the context menu reached
from the System Tray. JFW does not read this menu well. When moving
through the menu, I often hear the choice I am leaving along with the
choice
I have selected. I always press Insert+Up Arrow to confirm the
selection
before pressing Enter.
Flor, if you are reading this, what is the full version number of EZ
Antivirus you downloaded, and what operating system are you running? Do
all
of the controls in the option dialogs speak properly?
