Hi Chris & Doris and david.
right. ok, well please pardon my ignorance upon that one.
and Thanks for setting us straight about the different purposes for the two
types of spyware applications.
Since you also seem to be aware of the existence of Scripts for previous
versions which david has referred to before if memory serves,
Are you perhaps aware of the identity of the author's of those scripts, with
the view to asking them personally if they are interested in any ongoing
development for them? although I suppose if they had been, then scripts
supporting the new versions of spyware blaster would've been readily
available from wherever those previous ones had been gotten.
Since you are obvoiusly users of this program, and have managed to drive the
program successfuly using the jaws Cursor, perhaps you and david could
communicate personally
as regards this, since there seems to be significant enough difficulties
there that I don't believe this is the first time David has sought
assistance with operation of this program?
It just seems to me david, that if all this is not forthcoming, it might be
worth for you, either:
A. tracking down the developers of spyware blaster itself, and finding out
how aware they are of accessibility issues, and seeking to highlight for
them, some of the issues your facing as a blind user, and in doing so,
seeking to gage their interest in helping make their program more accessible
from the, "back end," where of course the most joy/benefit would be gained,
for them as well as for wider community,
if their interest/motivation as regards
increasing accessibility to their software for the most people, was excited.
Rather than tracking down a script based solution, which of course is
continually going to break every time a new version of the software is
released, especially if the developers have no idea as yet, about
accessibility issues or concerns.
B. find another program which does a similar job, (there'd have to be stacks
I'd have thought,) that might be, "out of the box," more accessible/drivable
for you, than this program obviously is?
have you as yet sought to follow either of these A or B tracks, as outlined
above?
