Chapter 10. Using the Internet and E-mail

This chapter describes how to navigate the Internet, dictate and send e-mail
messages and chat with your voice.
You need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met before trying the
procedures in this chapter:
v You have a connection to the Internet, either by means of an established
account with a service provider or through a connection at work. To work
with America Online (AOL), you must be registered as an AOL user.
v Internet Explorer Version 4.01 with Service Pack 2 or higher, and/or
America Online Version 7.0 is installed on your computer.
v ViaVoice is installed on your computer with your user name and voice
model currently selected.
If ViaVoice does not recognize some of your commands, try saying the
Attention word, such as 'Computer', followed by the command.

Internet Explorer

Say "Surf the Web" when ViaVoice is active to start Internet Explorer.
Say "Jump to <favorite>" to open the page specified by the item listed in
your Favorites menu (from the Windows Start button or your browser's
tasklist). This command may be used whenever the Favorite Command Set is
active.
Say most menu items and toolbar buttons, such as "Forward", "Back", "Stop"
and "Home", to perform those operations.
Jump among hypertext links by saying any link you see in your browser
window. If you see the link Award winners from the previous ten years, for
example, just say the first five or six words of the link to jump to it.

If ViaVoice continually misrecognizes your commands, you should select the
option to require an Attention word—to be used before all voice
commands—from the Dictation tab in ViaVoice Options. Or you can select
the Use key for commands check box and choose a key to press while
saying a command.
