Hi Rocker

Thanks for sharing what works for you.  I know we'll be getting XP Home.  If
we went to XP pro, I'd have to buy Jaws Professional, and my upgrade will be
the standard version because that's what I have now.

We run Norton Firewall as well as Norton antivirus, and I've always fought
to understand Norton firewall. Is the support for the entire Norton suite
any better? I know part of it is that I've never totally understood how
Norton is set up, but it certainly doesn't seem intuitive to me.  Go-back,
for instance seems to not work for me as I can't read any of the safe points
to go back to.  I just let my sighted husband do most of the Norton stuff,
but that's always been a frustration for me.

Jean
