[nfbcs] NVDA and IE find

[Nancy Coffman]

I don't know if I find it to be superior.  It has to be started in Internet 
Explorer.  After that, I understand you can use it in FireFox.  Each time 
you run it, you are running an up-to-date version.  The advantage of NVDA is 
that it is on your computer so doesn't run over the Internet.  I have also 
had some people struggle a little bit to get into System Access because you 
have to go to the Internet and run it each time.  It is not installed.  Each 
person has to decide what they like and what they are willing to do to get 
it.
