Yes this is correct Doris and Chris. The lookout screen reader was a very low cost screen reader which came out a number of years ago. There was a magnification system called Magnice which came out around the same time produced by the same stable. I used to have lookout but never actually mastered it as it had a lot more in the way of keystrokes than I have ever known a screen reader to have. The combination product with lookout and Magnice was called Dual as far as I can remember.

Could this be the Lookout screenreader, a lowcost offering put out by the ppl who now make Thunder?

I believe Lookout used some sort of offscreen model but wasn't the hottest in functionality. I think there also was a lowcost screen magnifier to go with this but I do not know details.

Has anyone ever heard of software called Dual and Look out?  I have been
asked to help a guy who claims to have these as speech and magnification.
He says it's not working but it's difficult to find out much information
over the telephone as he doesn't seem to know much about it.
