Hello MS Developpers,

I'd like to draw your intention about a serious accessibility issue
with the Beta 1 of your antispyware product for blind people.

Actually, the problem is that the various Windows controls that are
used in the software are not standard so a screen reader won't be able
to deal efficiently with them.

It would actually be a great idea to implement MS Acctive
Accessibility in your product, so that blind people who are also
customers after all... get access to the software.

Please Please don't forget this issue. we don't want to be left behind
like often.

Thank you.

Shez
 
This issue is most assuredly not forgotten. Microsoft has this in mind and
work is being done on it. I don't know the specifics, but they've not
solicited bug reports in several areas--spelling/grammar, accessibility, and
localization, because all three areas are well understood and work committed
already on them
