Jeff called to tell us he has been using Super Anti-Spyware and finding that Jaws does a good job read the screens. Jaws is a screen reader for those who are blind. I have used it before and find that it is a good free program. It is a pro-active program that runs in the system tray and attempts to block spyware from getting on your computer in the first place. You can find it at: http://www.superantispyware.com Jeff also has a great site for blind listeners to exchange computer tech chatter. The link is http://groups.google.com/group/computer-chatter?hl=en Patrick, a member of the Illinois National Guard, is being shipped off to Afghanistan soon wanted to know what precautions to take with his new laptop to protect it while he is deployed. We suggested that if the environment is comfortable for him, it will be comfortable for his laptop. We also suggested that he take a look at Military Significant Other Support site, http://groups.google.com/group/computer-chatter?hl=en. And, look at Skype, http://www.skype.com, to talk to and see his wife and new daughter while he's gone. It's free to use from anywhere in the world.
