Hi everyone, At the Bookshare users meeting last Tuesday, many individuals suggested that I try Google Desktop. I thought it sounded interesting, so I downloaded it. I frequently read the HTML Bookshare files when I want to read a book. After installing Google Desktop, I found that I couldn't directly open my Bookshare HTML files. When I clicked on an HTML file in My Computer, it would take me directly to the Google search page instead of the book text. The same thing happened when I tried to open the XML file. This happened with a few different books too. I tried for a long time to figure out how in the world I would be able to read my HTML Bookshare files and couldn't think up a solution. So I uninstalled the Google Desktop application. When I did, my XML files read, but my HTML files still didn't open and I really wish they did because I like reading that way. So, if anyone has a suggestion as to how I can keep Google from breaking my Bookshare files, I'd appreciate it. BTW, I'm using JFW version 7.0. After a lot of trial and error, I discovered that I could read my HTML files by pressing control tab from the Google search page. Thanks to this, I can now read my HTML Bookshare books. However, I'd really prefer to not have to do the control tab at all. I really want my book to open up right away as it used to. I don't know how to fix that. As I said, I've already uninstalled the Google Desktop so can't figure out why Google still has a hold over my computer. I looked in my add and remove programs box and there are no Google components left on my system, and yet somehow it appears that there is something left from that program. I wrote this message for two reasons. 1. I'm hoping that someone can help me figure out how to fix my HTML files. 2. It's important for us all to realize that, while some new programs may look fun and easy to us, there are plenty of other users who won't find them half so intuitive. This doesn't mean that Bookshare shouldn't develop new applications, it just means that not everyone has the same level of tech skills and it's important to keep that in mind.
