Re: Good Browsing Hygiene, was: Kaspersky antivirus, how accessible?

Shaun Everiss
 

Aggreed.
Most issues I find are in the junk folders.
I have had many experiences where the systems are shared.
This can happen in large organisations such as universities where a virus is hard to keep off a huge system.
Every summester, each unit is reformatted and restored, between these, its your own beef.
And flash drives all over the place are a big issue.
A simple worm infected several computers in my brothers student group including our main system.
Fortunately the vbs file titled m was easy to get off startup, easy to end and easy to delete without any antivirus issues and all drives were easy to get rid off.
However it loaded malware which mangled program installs and had to be pulled with hijack this in addition it deleted all drive pointers which also took some times to fix.
On another time a spyware program did the same thing on a computer.
Usually a good reformat would have fixed it and usually I would have just reformat but I had 3 days to do it.
And after a search I found a program that would fix the issue made by a hacker.
Over that, though, I have had a couple sob cases.
I had a user that treated her system so badly that even after I repaired things she still managed to foul it up so much that I simply just did a reformat and gave it back to her afterward and said, I don't want any cash for this, but no more contracts for you sorry.
Another system I got that was new was so infected, I simply skipped backup and just reformat.
Another box had a virus, but the user over reacted, and loaded 30 security programs and scanners and addons and other stuff of each type and brought a lot of extra stuff.
It ended with me removing everything and loading something that worked.
Lately I have had units that have just run till replacement.
The latest units will need checking in 6 months time but are likely not to need any real work since they have 10, its likely all I will need to do is update drivers, some software plugins maybe 4 programs maybe 5 installers, and clear junk.
Both these took 2 hours each to setup so I could be done within 30minutes to 1 hour for both or less and thats the way it should be.

Ari,

It was never a common technique, and you only need concern yourself with
it if you are suddenly being presented with a window or pop-up window
that's coming up from nowhere and has no connection to anything you were
doing. I don't know if there's a connection between the context menu
that allows you to exit and the "Red X" exit at the upper right corner
of the screen.

Seriously, if you keep your browsing hygiene even reasonably good none
of these things will need to matter to you. While it's always good to
know what you need to do if "the worst" happens, "the worst" seldom
happens unless you're being careless to begin with.

I honestly can't remember the last time the antivirus on any of my
computers quarantined anything or any of the other antispyware or
antimalware programs found anything, either. I am not nearly as
stringent or assiduous as some others are, as I've already noted. I am
of the computing attitude, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure." The metaphorical ounce of prevention is not difficult to do on a
consistent basis.

I've recently posted on how to disable protected view in Microsoft
Office programs. There have been times where there have been howls of
protest that one simply can't and shouldn't do that. I make a note that
you should do this with the proviso that you are watchful about
precisely what MS-Office files you're willing to open based on knowing
who and where they came from. If you know your stuff is coming from
people you trust, they have security suites on their computers, it's
being routed through an e-mail provider or cloud storage provider that
virus scans everything, and you have your antivirus set up to scan
anything you download before it gets saved on your machine then, really,
how big a risk are you taking?

Re: nvda on vista

Joseph Lee
 

Hi,
Probably not (don't turn off User Account Control, although I must stress that users should also be careful when it comes to running programs, visiting sites and so on). The user interface for UAC on Vista is slightly different than that of later versions.
Vista will be supported until next April, and you need to have Service Pack 2 and a specific update in order to install NVDA.
Cheers,
Joseph

the x and close buttons are the same.
Right, one thing is that unless its official I usually take forums as people's opinions.
Now don't get me wrong they are great when solving or asking questions but I wouldn't use them for any serious stuff unless there is official things.
Its fine at home but when you do work on remotes and a few other things, you kinda don't want to rumble round with patch hacks, patchcracks or any other bridged flimsys for to long.
Not saying that in the beginning I didn't do this when I had the chance but its never good to keep it that way all the time.

One of the points I hadn't given much thought is not closing down what appear to be malicious windows using the red X at the upper right corner. This is something a screen reader user wouldn't likely have to consider often, since most I know will use ALT+F4 to close a window, but it is an interesting point that even the normal way of dismissing a window via mouse pointer can be used as the entry point for malicious software.

Re: Unable to install NVDA on Windows Vista laptop

vista will be supported I think for the next 3 years.
You have 2 years after that on 7.
And after that another 2 on 8.1
Windows 10 expires a year or so after that.
So it says currently.

Hi guys

My problem is that the well known application used by sighted guys is
screen reader inaccessible.

I am particularly talking about virtual DJ.

Does anyone know of this application and has ever used it with a screen reader?

I find it difficult to use with nvda and jaws.

Do you know of any application I can use that is doing nearly the same
thing as virtual DJ?

Re: How do I check a check box?

Brian Vogel
 

Erik,

          I forgot to say, but should have, that this does not appear to be an issue with NVDA, nor even with Open Office, per se.  There are just too many layers of conversion going on from the original source and something is getting lost in the conversion before you ever start working with the thing in Open Office.

Brian
Re: How do I check a check box?

Brian Vogel
 

Erik,

              I have the same version of Open Office and, interestingly, I just had a crash while trying to play around with this form.  I can replicate the crash if I tab beyond the "end" of the form trying to jump to the next (and non-existent, in this case) fillable item.

              The above being noted, the form itself probably has accessibility issues.  I have not used "fillable forms" in Open Office but have in MS-Office and, based on what you've supplied, this thing appears to be a form template but not set up that the end user can only enter data in specific form fields.  Some of what you've filled in shows up in advance of the text boxes that I presume the developer probably thought you'd be landing in and then typing in.  There is only one checkbox, at the bottom of page two, and even when I click on it with the mouse the object itself is not announced (making me believe there's no alternate text that describes its purpose) nor do I get any feedback from NVDA when I check or uncheck directly with the mouse.

                I took it upon myself to "go to the source" and this form downloads as an MS-Word document.  When opened under MS-Word it behaves as I'd expect - a template with fillable fields and those fields are the only thing you can touch.  It's still horrible from an accessibility standpoint because the fields do not have any descriptive text associated with them to tell you what you've landed in and the checkbox is the same.  Checkbox is announced but the question would be, "Checkbox for what?"

                If I open the MS-Word document under Open Office or Libre Office, even retaining that format and not converting to ODT format, neither behaves at all well with this form.  They both go back to treating it as if the whole document should be editable rather than traversing just the form fields and letting you fill them in.

                I'm sorry that this is what I have to report.  Given "the source" of this form it would be entirely legitimate to complain loudly that the form itself, in MS-Word, is not accessible in its native format.  They need to add at least descriptive text, if not that and help text, to the various form fields so that anyone accessing it with Word and a screen reader can have a clue as to what they're expected to be filling in when they land on a given field or are checking to indicate on a checkbox.  I doubt you'll get any traction as far as compatibility with OpenOffice or LibreOffice.  Organizations don't, and can't, create electronic forms for every conceivable office suite.  That being said, if they wanted to be more "universal" about it they should be using fillable PDFs, which are supported under Adobe Reader and can be saved after being filled in.

Re: Good Browsing Hygiene, was: Kaspersky antivirus, how accessible?

Brian Vogel
 

These days, with the exception of the Clamwin open-source antivirus, I don't know of a single antivirus or internet security product that does not do "on access" scanning for downloads.  Windows Defender, the built-in that comes with Windows 8 and 10, does that.  I have AVG, and Panda Cloud on two other machines in the house and they do that.  Avast did that.  You can even get an open-source add-on for Clamwin called Clam Sentinel and then Clam Sentinel does that job.  The timing can be different, though.  Most that I'm aware of will scan anything you attempt to download from the internet when you attempt to download it.  When it comes to e-mail most do something similar at download time, while there were a few products that did the scanning when you attempted to open a message or specific attachment.  The latter is becoming the exception rather than the rule these days.

When it comes to web filtering and security suites the default settings differ.  When I took a look at the Sophos home page their statement, "With just a few clicks, block access to sites that may contain inappropriate content or malicious software," suggests that you have to turn this feature on.  I've always done something similar with a product named Spywareblaster.

Shared computers, particularly those shared with, shall we say, "less sophisticated" users tend to need a bit more cyber armor than those used by a single user who consistently practices good computing hygiene.

There is no "one size fits all" though there's a wide "one size fits most" style of setup.

If the form in question is downloadable, or you have a blank version, you can feel free to e-mail it to me and I'll see what I can do to activate a checkbox using NVDA 2016.1.


Here is a link to the form.

            If you're a mouse user typically a left mouse click on a checkbox acts as a toggle.  You might want to get focus on the checkbox object and hit Num Pad Divide (desktop keyboard layout) or NVDA+[ (laptop keyboard layout) to see if it has the same effect.  


This is another issue. My virtual machine is showing severe neglect.  I am in the process of fixing it as we speak, but in the current configuration I have no nvda key.  Most upsetting.  I wanted to try the suggestions of NVDA plus left bracket and nvda plus enter but I'm on a bit of a time constraint and it may take a long while to get my keyboard back in shape.

Thanks for looking.

Hi.  we don't have a lot to go on here.

1.  is user account control turned on?  if so, does it come up?

2.  what anti-virus program do you have?

it maybe be blocking the download or the running of the file.  for example, if you have internet explorer and smart screen filter is on, it will likely prevent the file from opening unless you explicitly allow it.

does the installer come up?

if not, what happens when you try and run the file.

write privately if you want.  btw, on vista, anything less than service pack 2 will give you odd results I suspect.
