[nabs-l] Question about the most recent Adobe update

[Cindy Bennett]

Hi all,

An interesting thing happened last week when I downloaded the most
recent update for Adobe, and I thought it was just me until someone
else mentioned this happening.

I initiated the update, and all of a sudden, JAWS stopped talking, and
some prompt to start the Windows accessibility tutorials came up. I
had no idea what was going and restarted my computer. Someone at my
chapter meeting said this happened. Apparently it crashes all screen
readers. I don't know. I tried some Google searches and really didn't
get anywhere.

Now Adobe isn't working altogether which I am guessing has something
to do with the fact that I never finished the update. So I should
probably use an older version for now, but I thought the experience
was very interesting, and I was curious to see if anyone else
encountered the same problem. I am using JAWS 13 and Windows 7.
