Thanks. I'll look for that program.
I have installed VM Ware tools as I believed it as necessary to allow JFW to
work...something about the display. At any rate, now, when I start up Windows
XP in the virtual machine JFW asks me if I want to install the video intercept.
It doesn't seem to allow me to actually install it so, I'm wondering if it is
necessary as JFW, aside from the Jaws cursor, seems to work alright.
Thx,
Jeff
