Hi all,

Here's how to hear the progress of a download:

1. Find the download you want.

2. Then press tab and shift tab to make sure you're on the link for the 
download.

3. Then, press shift f10.

Now it will not say context menu, but that's ok, so press down arrow to 
find save link as.

4. Then, press enter.

5. Then, tab down to save button, and press space bar.

6. Now Your download will begin, but it won't say the percentage very 
much, so press control j and you will hear the percentage beep from 
NVDA, which is fantastic, but you will also hear the time left in the 
progress of the download.

enjoy!

Harry
