I captured this comment from CastleCops. This statement causes concern. Can somebody comment on this Screen Reading allegation?

Very Good, users should be aware that this program is a screen reader, done without your consent or knowledge. Plenty of software to prevent screen reading and preventing this does not decrease it's functuality. Screen reading is a privacy issue at the very least and while some companies simply use this to track your useage of their product or websites you visit (privacy issue), someone you do not know, a stranger, will see what you see on your screen and who knows what is done with that info if you are at say, your online banking site, etc, YOUR information.. Very good program, just don't let it read your screen, you can prevent it. Otherwise it will read it without your consent and knowledge.

Hello cgboat,

Please give a link to the post in question as the quoted comment makes no sense.

Best regards.

:oops:

I'm sorry about causing some inconvenience by not including a support link.

In addition, I concluded anybody responding would have the CC link.

Also, I did a Screen Reader search and no hits were returned. Therefore, another conclusion. This conclusion being there are no other threads addressing the Screen Reader concern.

Thanks to all replying to my post for being diplomatic in your comments and not flaming me.
