But the first question is, "what version of Firefox are you using?"  Webvism won't work in any version of Firefox newer than 52.x.  If you are using a newer version, you can use a portable version of Firefox that is 52.x for solving captchas and the newest version, portable or installed, for other browsing.

Navigate to a page containing a captcha, press Control+Alt+6, wait until you
receive a message stating that the result has been copied to the clipboard,
and paste it into the captcha edit field.  Note that WebVisum will not solve
all captchas.  Especially the newer ones with the
""I am not a robot"
checkbox.

Hi all

I use Windows 7

Office/outlook 2010

Jaws 14

On a Del desk top 64

I need a free dependable virus checker to double check that I have no virus on my pc

I opened a page and a voice said that Microsoft has detected a virus and that Ineed to call a 800 number…

I did not and just hard killed the machine, and turned it on to run what I have

So far it looks fine

But I want to take that lil nag off the back of my mind.

I have ran MSE and Malware bites

There was something but I removed it with the Malware bite –program

But I want to make sure

Any suggestions?

Even if it’s just a one tine thing

I’m not really looking to install a perm. Program

Thanks

Subject: [TechTalk] Bluetooth problem

Hello,

 

My Lenovo X260 pc is running Windows 10 and JAWS 18.0.4104.

When I boot up, my Bluetooth device connects, I can hear JAWS talking through the device, I enter my password and press enter and the Bluetooth device disconnects.  This is happening with 3 different devices; one headset and 2 individual speakers.  I can’t imagine JAWS causing the problem.  But, I’ve seen stranger things in the almost 30 years of using the product.

This just started about 2 weeks ago.

 

Any hints/suggestions?

 

Thanks,

 

Reed

Dear Mike,

True enough. I was just trying to address the features and tell folks
what it could do. But you're right. It requires some serious setup
time, unless, of course, you just want to copy one directory and all
its subs. But if you want something more complex, GoodSync is
definitely a good tool to use. It's just not spit-simple.

Steve. Try connecting your microphone to the device you want to route
your microphone speech to, then try to reconfigure your mic output and
see if it works. Cheers!

The normal thing is to show only two devices. The problem is not that
I can't see the devices, I just can't rearrange them, and what's up

Have you tried expanding the combo box with Alt+Down Arrow? This is usually

Subject: [TechTalk] Windows update caused Skype audio settings problems


After my recent update to Windows 10 build 15063 (which I think is the
Creator update everybody's been on about for months now), my audio
devices in Skype have all been rearranged, and no matter what I do, I
cannot get them re-rearranged correctly. Here's what's happening.

In the Tools -> Options -> General -> Audio Settings dialog, the
Speakers selection combo box is OK, but in the Microphone section, two
devices are shown, and I don't want to use either of them. So, I
select the "Show advanced options" button, and now I can access all my
audio devices. Again, in the Speakers combo box, the correct device is
checked. Checked? There was never a checkbox there before. Now where'd
that come from? OK, it's correct, I leave it alone. But in the
Microphone combo box, there is a checkbox next to a device I don't
want to use. I have tried pressing the space bar on it to uncheck it,
tried that technique on the device I really do want to use, it does
not get checked, I've tried with real and virtual mouse buttons,
nothing changes. I did find a Remove button and two pairs of Up and
Down buttons. Remove doesn't remove anything. I can move things up and
down in either combo box, but I cannot change the status of the
checkboxes. And if that's not enough, after fiddling with the Up and
Down buttons with mouse-clicker controls in my screenreader, and then
saving changes, the settings revert back to what they were before I
started monkeying with them. What am I doing wrong, and how can I
straighten this out? The problem seems to be on a per-account basis
bec ause somehow I was able to fix it when logged in to another
account, but even then, it took me forty-five minutes to do so. So
until I can get this straightened out, I can't use Skype. Any
suggestions?
