Katherine,

The latest version 2.12 should eliminate this problem. Please let us
know if you discover otherwise.

Thanks,
Steve

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.

To the developers of GW Connect,<o:p></o:p>
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.<o:p></o:p>
Sincerely,<o:p></o:p>
Eddie Salcido<o:p></o:p>
