Hi Mike that malware issue is interesting how do you not listen  
indiscriminately Huh?  you mean you avoid all comercially broadcast outlets  and 
college ones too until you know there isn't a virus on the site?  Well  maybe I'm 
just misunderstanding what your getting at Huh?  Speeking of  malware I got 
a great program yesterday that Kim Komando had as a  download.  If you have 
an antivirus or other programs for security that  maybe aren't detecting 
everything try Malwarebytes.  Scanned with it  yesterday and scan came back 
clean.  _www.malwarebytes.org_ (http://www.malwarebytes.org)  The free version 
 will scan on demand.  If you want real time protection though that is a 
pay  for it option.

Sometimes WMP or other media  programs get hung up or don't close when 
there's a site problem. Try opening  the media player you think is being used 
and close it manually. If that  doesn
't work, you may need to restart your system.

Incidentally,  you're opening yourself to malware by indiscriminate 
listening which also may  be what's happening.

Hi folks.

If anyone wants to read books  online check out this website.

www.onread.com

Apart from the  usual inaccessible image verification to sign up and there 
is
no audio  versions to be found so you'll have to use solona.net and or
sighted  assistance, this website is apart from that fully accessible.

They have  a wide selection of books you can read online completely free of
charge  even modern books and the ability to choose between formats such as
rtf txt  and pdf formats to read online.

Even the twilight books are there to  read online but to download anything
you must register which again apart  from the image verification is easy to
do.

So check this site out it  would be nice if there were audio versions of the
actual images but it is  fully accessible once the sign up process is
completed.

Authors such  as roald dahl, j k rollings j r r tolkien and many many more
can be found  here and there are no catches the reading of the actual books
is completely  free and the terms clearly state you shouldn't print anything
for the use  of anyone else and or commercial profits etc.

So check it out it is an  extremely useful resource for books completely
legal and completely free of  charge and as I say use solona.net and or
sighted assistance to get through  the image verification process.

The address again  is

www.onread.com

Hello Steve and  everyone,

Audio captchas won't work for the deaf-blind.  Please don't leave them 
out.

Hi, all!

I am  looking for a twitter client. I tried Qwitter. It's a good program; 
however,  it was not suitable for my PC environment.
Thanks!

Well, Qwitter requires to  run a SAPI, Windows' standard speech engine, but 
the screen reader I am using  runs with API speech engine, which is not a 
standard  format.

I'm also looking for an accessible twitter client  only to replace twikini 
on 
my windows moble cell phone. Because twikini  will not be updating its 
authentication to reflect twitter's changes in  Sept and will be throwing 
in 
the twoel for developing for windows moble  6.x and will be coming back for 
windows moble 7.
There;s lllots of  bline peopel who tweet from there windows moble phones 
and 
I like twikini  because it was easy to se.
I've tried some of the other twitter clients out  there and no luck getting 
them to read everything like twikini did with  Moble Speak 4.0. I'm using 
the 
HTC ozone with moble speak 4.0. SO far I've  liked usig twikini, now I 
don't 
since after August 31st I won't be able to  use it at all.
I need suggestions for ways to tweet from my windows moble  phone.
Please help.
Carrie
THe ones i've tried are Motweets, and  QUakk, and I've also tried Fring, 
and 
none of them worked at all on my  windows moble phone.
Carrie
