[nfbcs] jAWS and Deep Freeze

[Fred Wurtzel]

hi,

Thanks for taking the time to do that.  I'm not sure of what the problem is.
I'm not a student there and haven't used their system.  In fact, I use
Window-Eyes, so my JAWS knowledge is limited.  I thought I would ask on this
list in hopes someone had run into something I could pass on in our meeting
with the Dean of students, tomorrow.

Again, thanks for taking time to help.  It is appreciated.

Best Regards,

Fred

hi,

i went to http://www.faronics.com/enterprise/deep-freeze/
and it sounds like a good way to manage several systems.
do you know what the conflict is/does the program slow or lock jaws?

  Hi,

  Sure, sorry Deep Freeze is a program that does not allow a computer to be
  updated.  It is used on public computers to prevent users from changing
the
  configurations of those computers or to prevent viruses or malware
programs
  from infecting the computer by making changes.  When the computer is
logged
  off and then logged back onto it reverts to the standardized settings and
  content.

  I hope this helps.  I apologize for assuming that this is a common
program.
  Lansing Community College uses it on its public computers.  They claim
there
  is a conflict with JAWS so they only have 3 computers for blind students
to
  use.  The limit is because the computers with JAWS don't have Deep Freeze.
  This causes problems for equal access by blind students to the college
  computers for student use.  We are having a meeting, tomorrow and I
wondered
  if anyone had experience with this program.

  Thanks for any help.

  warm Regards,

  Fred

    Hello,

    I am working with lansing Community College.  There is an issue
regarding
    Deep Freeze.  is Deep Freeze compatible with JAWS?  This is an important
    issue for access for blind students.

    Thanks.

    Warm Regards,

    Fred
