Yes, HP inaccessibility bugs me. I had to uninstall an update to my scanner
software because the new save scan dialog was not accessible.

Tracy,

If you have an HP computer, it is probably one of HP's updates.  They act
just like that.  However, I have seen similar behavior on Asus computers as
well.  Particularly the HP problem bugs me inasmuch as they are a company
we've worked with over and over on accessibility over the years, and mostly,
what they make accessible seems to be things that would probably have been
accessible anyway like the web interface to some of their network printers.
I have never had a problem when closing these windows with ALT F4.  Also,
you could see what results you get using JFW's screen OCR on these windows.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
