Free Downloads and Resources

On this page, you will find links to programs that can make your computing experience easier. Some would not necessarily be classified as "adaptive", and not every link is for every user, but hopefully we will eventually have something for everyone. If you know of a link that should be here, let us know.

Access Firefox.org (http://www.accessfirefox.org/)
Access Firefox presents and showcases some of the accessibility tools and features that are available for the free Firefox web browser. Of special note is Accessibar (http://www.accessfirefox.org/Accessibar.php), which allows you to quickly and easily customize various visual settings of web pages for a more comfortable Internet surfing experience. Accessibar also offers a free and optional text to speech screen reader that is easy to learn and use.

AI RoboForm (http://www.roboform.com)
A one-click web form filler and password manager with some serious Artificial Intelligence (AI) inside. It works as an add-on to Microsoft Internet Explorer ver 4 or later, all browsers based on IE, and Netscape 6. It is absolutely free for personal use.

Click-N-Type
(http://CNT.LakeFolks.com)
An on-screen virtual keyboard designed for anyone with a disability that prevents him or her from typing on a physical computer keyboard. As long as the person can control a mouse, trackball or other pointing device, he or she can send keystrokes to virtually any Windows application or DOS application that can run within a window.

Cmap Concept Mapping Software
(http://cmap.ihmc.us/)
A free program, created as part of a research project at IHMC, based at the University of West Florida. Not as user friendly as Inspiration, but hey, the price is right!

Mousetool
(http://www.mousetool.com) is the free award-winning program that clicks the mouse for you. Note: This software is no longer free, but is now $75.00! Moral: Download the free stuff while you still can! P.S. : I have a copy (of the free version) and will share it with you if you ask. Just email me. (Click here if you want to buy the newer version, Nib)

NLM DocMorph (http://docmorph.nlm.nih.gov/docmorph/docmorph.htm)
This free service allows you to convert any document to speech. Even images of documents! This is especially handy for people who have a scanned text document in an image format.

Readplease
(http://www.readplease.com)
ReadPlease is a free text-to-speech application that will read aloud any text on a computer screen. It is specially designed to text documents and e-mail. (See Accessibar above for web browsing with speech)
