[gui-talk] Can't finish installing Winamp Remote

Usually that means something is not checked or filled out that is
required in the dialog, and the button you're clicking will be
disabled until that is fixed.  Look for other fields on screen that
may not have been so obvious for some reason, for example, by not
appearing in the tab order as you tab through the dialog.

Hi,

I've recently download and installed the latest upgrade of Winamp, Version 
5.5, and everything is almost in place except for this Winamp Remote option. 
I'm not sure just what it's for, but Albert reassures me that it's fine to 
include it in the installation.

Okay, so I have tried to accept it. But if anyone knows this drill, there's 
a dialogue where you're supposed to submit log-in information (I guess this 
has something to do with going online to obtain music files somewhere?). You 
provide a User ID and a password, confirm the password, furnish an optional 
email address, then click on a Finish button.

Well, I can't do that. The Finish button refuses to respond to either the 
Enter key or the spacebar. Jaws doesn't say that pressing alt F is on option 
here, but I tried it anyway and of course that didn't do anything. I also 
tried switching to the Jaws cursor, finding the Finish button and left 
clicking it. But no response to that, either.

Oddly, the Cancel button *does* respond, so I'm able to close the dialogue 
after confirming that's what I mean to do. The confirmation keypress also 
works, of course.

Any suggestions?

Thanks very much.
