Hi Richard,
Yes, those audio captia files can be almost unintelligible. I am =
using the=20
Firefox browser which is supported in later versions of JAWS and =
Window-Eyes=20
and I use a plug-in called Webvisum. This plug-in logs you into a =
website=20
and can read the captia and give you the results. It actually reads =
the=20
visual captia and places it on your screen and in the Windows =
Clipboard, so=20
all you have to do is highlight the edit field and paste in the =
information=20
with Control + V.
I realize that this involves a learning curve and some significant=20
adjustments. But so far, since I had been using firefox already and =
since=20
installation of the plug-in is not very difficult, it has never failed =
me on=20
a page requiring a visual captia.
You can obtain firefox at http://www.mozilla.com and Webvisum at=20
http://www.webvisum.com.

Hi;
I recently received a e-mail from my son asking that I join face-book =
so I
would be on his friends list. Well I tried but it asks you to enter a
password that apparently shows up as a graphic. They graciously offer =
a
link that supposedly speaks the info you need to enter. Apparently =
they
intentionally distort the audio so it can't be picked up with speech
recognition software. Either I have a hearing problem or it is just =
about
unintelligible. Has anyone else had a similar problem? I haven't =
played
with yahoo much but I was left with the idea that they do something =
similar.
Is there any solution?
As for the Braille note and other note takers, I doubt you can put =
echo
link on any of them which is a bit unfortunate. I suspect the same =
holds
true with logging software. I'm not so interested in echo link but it =
would
be nice to use a notetaker to run a logging program.
Richard
