Thanks paul and Tim. That was nasty for a while! I think possibly that it may have been a card reading device which a friend of mine brought up to transfer some stuff across and then presumably uninstalled the necessary software. It was probably the next time I started up, but I can't 100% remember.

Hi Ed, Have you changed any hardware on your computer since you last used it. Even uninstalling and reinstalling components will have this effect. Are you sure its jaws5.0 that is coming up with an activation screen as I thought this system was only in practice since jaws V6. Anyway, its not hard to get a recount of your activations so if you goto the website "www.fsactivate.com" you can do what you need too there to rebuild your activation keys. Paul. -----Original Message----- >From: vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ed Harper Sent: 10 July 2006 22:37 To: vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Jaws 5.1 unauthorised itself! help! Hi folks, I ran my computer up, running xphome and jaws 5.1, but instead of behaving normally it went to the activation screen as though it were a new load of jaws. I haven't dared tell it to activate as I don't think I have any authorisations left. Is it possible to do anything, other than rob a bank and buy another copy. Presumably they know who I am and that I have paid, or they wouldn't know to stop authorising for ever and ever. Can anyone tell me any practical experiences of the freedombox or key. I seem to remember it sounded good and was much much cheaper if I have to buy something. In hope, and you can all imagine the frustration.

On July 17th, Nuance, formally known as scansoft, plan to release version 3.0 of Talks and Zooms, (screen reading and screen magnification programs respectively). Anyone who purchased either Talks or Zooms from NCBI since may of 2005 is entitled to upgrade free of charge to version 3.0. Those people who purchased talks directly from Vodafone, should contact me to see if you are eligible for the upgrade or not. 2. Similar to version 2.0 and 2.5, Talks will be distributed in two flavours, standard and Premium. NCBI sells the premium version only and Vodafone sell the Standard version. The 'bonus applications', which formally made up the premium version of talks have been withdrawn by Nuance and will no longer be available from July 17th. I will, later this week, post details of the new versions and the difference between the standard and premium versions. 3. From July 17th, NCBI will no longer be able to offer Talks at the specially reduced price of â50.00. We allowed this subsidised price to continue for quite a long period, to facilitate as many users as possible to obtain an accessible mobile device at a price that, while it was not cheap, was at least more affordable. Now that Vodafone provide this software effectively free on their handsets, we cannot continue our issuing of the product at this subsidised price. Note therefore that new versions of Talks 3.0 purchased on or after July 17th will be charged at â199.00. I will email pricing for Zooms magnification software shortly. If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
