I almost hate to mention this because the scripts are very very basic and
there are still problems with the spybot interface.  But I have written some
very basic scripts for spybot 1.3, just to make my life easier, smile, but
they still do not make spybot 1.3 what I would call jaws friendly.  I'm
hoping the developer will listen to us and make it as friendly as version
1.2 was.  Until then, you are welcome to try these scripts but you must
understand, I offer them AS IS!  If you write me privately with questions at
debbie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, I will try to help, but I offer no guarantees these
scripts will work for you.

Basically what I did is just create a hotkey (control shift L) which places
you in the listview when the scan is done.
Then it will read the listview with the pc cursor as you up and down arrow.
If an item in the list has the word "entries", you can press the space bar
on the main line that says how many "entries" it has for that category and
it will
check all the items under it for that category.

When you are on the line that has the word entries, you can press right
arrow and left arrow to
expand that branch of the "tree" to arrow down and see the list of
individual items for
that category.

Unfortunately spybot 1.3 gives no indication if an item is checked or not.
But none of them are checked by default when the scan first finishes.
So you need to check all the main "entries" with the space bar.

Then you can press alt F to fix the selected problems.

A couple of things.
First, when the scan is finished and you press control shift L, then you
will need to down arrow to get into the listview.  (sorry I haven't added
hotkey help yet, but control shift L is the only keystroke).

Next, and this is the most important!  I have found a serious focus issue
with spybot 1.3.  If you move focus
from the program and then try to go back to it, the spybot scripts won't
consistenly load.
I have found it best to run
the program and not do anything else until insert 3 tells you the scan is
done and then press control shift L.  It seems like if you leave the
program, it is hard to ever get true focus back.  Not only will the scripts
not work, but it sometimes ceases to read menu's and context menus.
So start the scan, go get
a drink or go to the bathroom, then come back and check if it is done.

So if you go to www.jfwlite.com, on the main page you will find a link for
the spybot 1.3 beta scripts information.
It will repeat what I have said above and then have links for:

Spybot 1.3 Scripts for Jaws 4.XX Download
Spybot 1.3 Scripts for Jaws 5 Download

Good luck!
