If I remember correctly, follow the "software" link on the homepage, and
then look for the "updates" link.

Hello,Friends:

Jaws12 is now out with a new update. Has anyone on this list installed it on

her/his computer yet? If so are you having any trouble with the update?







Thanks,

Sorry, I thought the list would have some experts to suggest possible
solutions. I found that submitting comments to Mozilla's support also
requires visual confirmation/verification, so that wouldn't help things.
Is there another blind-friendly list to discuss this with that won't take
verification to log in or post comments? Webvisum is very busy and slow
to respond. Thanks anyone.

That's a shame!!! Now what shall we do with websites that require
verifying yourself to sign in or submit a comment, to verify you're a
real human and not a robot? Pity the independent blind users who can't
find somebody to help fill in the box or solve the captchas, or don't
want to be a nuisance to people who are too busy to jump up and come to
their aid!

Hi list sorry to report this but, we may not ever have it back.
webvisum was disabled the other day when Firefox 5 was installed. it
seems mozilla has decided that they will now release new versions of
firefox every two months. the word on the NFB graphic user interface
list is that webvisum will likely give up trying to update it since
there is likely no way for them to ever keep up with this new
timetable. Thank you mozilla for caring so much to protect the internet
from us dangerous blind hackers/spammers. I wouldn't get my hopes up
for a screen reader to have it built in since if they can do that, the
real spammers would be able to do it to so that would defeat the whole
need for capcha.

Now that the list is back online, here are some of the latest
developments in my attempts to recover the use of Webvisum. Thanks.

that one you would have to take to a group, I'd ask it on both the
blind geek zone and/or the list provided by web visum I'm having some
odd difficulties with my current system and can't get web visum to run
correctly here on my main, but it loaded and ran fine on my secondary
and tertiary computers, so I don't have a good answer for you!

sorry,

Webvisum sent me a new password; I logged in with the new password and
tried once again to install the plugin, but still I can't get it to
work--I get the "unavailable" message following the "install button"
prompt. Is there an issue with my system or browser security settings,
or do I actually need an invitation code in addition to the password?
Do I need to upgrade Firefox to use this copy of the plugin? Thanks.

there is a spot, pardon a link where you can fill out a "request"
and get an invitation to web visum, if you remember your address and
sign in password (the same ones you input into web visum so it could
automatically sign in) you can go and download it again, I would use
revo uninstaller to pull out the old web visum, and then reinstall a
new copy.

or at worst case, contact me again and I will get you an invite
since I remember both my sign in and my password

Good morning. I'm sending this to you individuals because the JFW
list seems to be down right now.
Yesterday I sent this to the Webvisum Discuss listserv and
subscribed to their mailing list, but I suspect they may be very slow
to respond. If I don't hear from them in a week or so, what do I do
with Web sites that require verification? I could try Solona but not
sure if that works with Firefox, or if it can handle captchas and
images as efficiently as Webvisum. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi all. Recently I've been reading some posts regarding updating
to the latest version of Firefox, and that Webvisum hadn't released an
update for that version. For some time I've been able to use it on my
current version of Firefox 3.6. Someone suggested I download a
portable version of Firefox 5 to see how it worked and whether or not
Webvisum worked with it. Another post explained a work around for
accessing Webvisum with Firefox 5.0, by going to the install.rdf file
and changing the max number from 4 to 5. I did this and saved the
change, then downloaded the portable Firefox 5, but this created an
error message in Firefox 3 saying the file wasn't well-formed or
something. Webvisum not only didn't work on the portable Firefox, but
now it no longer works on Firefox version 3, and I also deleted the
install file for Webvisum and the plugin is no longer there.
Can you suggest a way to get a new plugin for Webvisum to download
again to Firefox 3? I'm already logged in, but can't find a link to
download the plugin. I erroneously sent a request for an invitation
but discovered that's not necessary if I know my username and password.
Thanks for your assistance.
