Either that, or implement something to detect whether Window-Eyes is installed on the machine, even if it isn't running, and if so, don't display ads.

Subject: Intrusiveness of Audio Adds

To the developers of GW Connect,
I thank you for the wonderful product you have made available and I realize that it is for free and you receive a lot of unwarranted complaints in regard to the adds that come up every half hour. In saying that, I think the audio adds are extremely obnoxious. They're the equivalent to pop up adds and perhaps worse, since you can still close a pop-up with alt F4. There is no way that an audio add can be interrupted so far as I know. If there is, I take back all I have previously said. I suggest that you consider dispensing with this immediately if you want to continue attracting users to GW Connect.
Sincerely,
Eddie Salcido
