Hi Lana,
I think right clicking can be done with the context key and clicking with the enter key.

When they dropped OneCare they came out with
another which is the same thing except they
dropped the look and firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials.
It protects the same and is free with small footprint on the system.
Now a note on routers. They all have a type of
firwall and does good when setup. Just remember
it don't tell you when it blocks something. You
have to read the log for that info. Also some are
very controlled on there blocking. meaning they
don't let you state what you want through. They
just block certain types from going out and in.
A software firewall on the system will be much
more customizable to your tastes.
The easiest way to get into the router is look at
the gateway on your box. To find it use command
prompt and type in ipconfig. That gateway number
will in the browser will bring up the log in
screen of the router. If you don't have that info
on the router. You will not get in.

Hello List:

     For about three years, I have been using
Windows Live OneCare for its firewall,
antivirus scanning and backup facilities.
Microsoft is no longer renewing OneCare, so I
need to find something else. I am running
Windows XP Home and use JAWS 11. I need to
replace all three functions of virus scanning,
firewall and backup. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.

Regards,

Robert Jaquiss
