Hi Ali and all,
You could try Bear Share from
www.bearshare.com
and there's a link to it on the JFWLite website too. It uses the same
Gnutella Client as Limewire. I only installed BearShare couple of days ago
to try it out - it's not perfect with JAWS but I could make use of it with
the help of the JAWS cursor. A friend of mine who uses file sharing progs
regularly says BearShare is a lot better than Limewire though he wasn't
talking from a VIP perspective. I remember seeing some articles on the net
talking about security vulnerability in the Limewire's new version, on the
other hand, the free version of BearShare isn't spyware free. But as I said
I'm new to this file sharing business so my comments may not be very
accurate.
HTH,
Amro

Hi Ali,
Limwire seems completely useless to visuall impaired people. I've tried
Jaws and had the same experience as you, ditto System Access.
The website is pretty promising and I soon found my way through that and
downloaded it. The installer was fine too. The Setup program then says
nothing - all I could get from a screen reader was reporting of the keys I
was pressing. I got through because I can see a bit, but I gather the
screens are done as graphics. Weird stuff! at least they use big text but
that's not much help.
The program itself uses tiny ffonts and doesn't seem to trigger screen
readers. I don't know how they've done it.
Vince.

Has anyone tried this one? I have tried it with jaws and could not
access
any of the buttons or links. I am using jaws 7.
Thank you.
