Ok I'm trying to subscribe for the zone's mailing list and this google tool bar is all over the form and I don't know how to work around it with jaws in order to fill out the form and this thing is so annoying and it makes filling out a form difficult. Is there any way around this stupid thing?

Delete it!
It's eval.

Alternately, you could try pressing control E. That toggles it in and out of view.

Yeah go under add/remove programs and remove that damn toolbar.

I removed my google tool bar months ago when I got my computer back from the shop

Yea. Some people like it, but I'm not one of them. It's great if you want your forms filled in for you, but I think it to much info to have on a computer that's always connected. You never no when the Goggle people might get hacked. Also when your installing new programs watch that Google isn't included. You can uncheck the box that ask if you want it.

I'm thinking about downloading my google toolbar again. Our internet's actually encripted and we have Windows Firewall and Mcafee Virus scan, but we also have these rather annoying piop-up things whic[h apostrophe r]e over riding our orange blocker, so I think it's the only way I'll stop getting the pop-ups.

I was told a while back that the google toolbar was supposed to be able to block poppups, but never could get it to do anything but I think just sit there, so I ended up uninstalling it as well.

Glad to hear you got rid of it! Sometimes when I go to Windows update it asks me if I want it! I didn't know they had a check box to tell it you don't want it! Thank you Bill I always have to uninstall it!

Most programs I download want to install that thing so I just uncheck the checkbox.

Same here Troy. When you download WindowsLive or MSN Messenger or Real Player, it'll have a check box that you need to uncheck if you don't want the Google or Yahoo toolbars. The Google toolbar is a bit too visual for my liking and it just blocks any pop-ups, whether you want them blocked or not, so I uninstalled it as well, not at all easy to do if you use Windows Vista with Jaws 8.0.1163.

This is totally off the subject but lets see if someone can answer it. There is that thing that says googgle toolbar can fill this out for you but how. Can someone tell me how to get in to the toolbar to get my info in for it to automatically put it in each field? Hope someone understands me.

I don't think you actually have to go in to the toolbar, but you do have to put your details in manually first time round, then it remembers them if you need to fill them in any time after that initial first time you typed them in.
