The site claims it needs internet explorer to make most things talk. You can't pay me enough to use that bloated bug ridden piece of crap. No thanks, Guess I'll never be using system access to go ever

Actually, I don't have this problem. When I'm reading large chunks of text, my screen will blank, but NVDA keeps right on reading, just as if the screen wasn't blanked at all. I'll have to check my se
