[nfbcs] JFW and Windows Live Messenger

OK.  Someone pointed me to some scripts with keyboard commands.
Alt plus numbers read you messages.  For instance, alt-1 reads your previous
message.  Alt-2 reads two messages.
You can even put the thing in a virtual window and check it out that way.

I think JAWS should be able to read you the messages automatically as they
come up. Freedom Scientific did put in scripts for Windows Live Messenger to
be able to do that. They should appear in tooltips, which JAWS can read
while you are out of the Windows Live messenger window, and they should talk
well when you are in also. So I'm not sure what your problem is.

I'm trying to use it with someone else in a chatting situation.  I can type
in what I want, but reading what they're writing me back or going over it
isn't working so well as what it used to.

Before, I used to route my jaws to PC and reread their messages and our
conversation in general.  So far, it's not happening.
