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

Hi,

What does that mean, practically speaking? You mean I'm going to have to put 
up forever with this dialogue appearing every time I start my computer, 
always resisting my attempts to take care of it? There's no "later," here. I 
tried it when I installed, and I tried again just now when I booted up and 
it got in my face. I don't expect this is going to change, so what you say I 
don't understand. I can't do it now, and I won't be able to do it later, 
unless I overcome this troublesome dialogue. I don't know how to bring it up 
on purpose, so I'll try it next time I boot up and it presents itself again. 
But it does not offer me a choice to say please don't show me this again. So 
I'm gonna have to deal with it somehow. As I have no idea what it's for at 
this time, that makes it doubly annoying.
goot

While it's alright to install the remote, you don't have to do it now.

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.
