IMPORTANT NOTES TO USERS OF THIS PAGE

Recently the developer of Qwitter has ceased development of the program. The files found on this page will also work with The Qube and other clients still in development. The instructions below will also work for them.
We have removed the executable files formerly found on this page. Most computers purchased recently come with 64 bit operating systems and those files will not work with them. Detailed instructions for installing the zip files may be found below. For those of you with 64 bit systems, you'll need to modify the location where you place the file to the following.
Windows7c. Program Files(x86)
Note the left parron and right paron in the file path.

Looking For A Replacement For Qwitter?

Since learning that the Qwitter Accessibility Interface would no longer be developed, the Accessible Devices Team has started using the Qube, (Pronounced Cube). We have found it very responsive and since it uses the open source code that Qwitter also did the hot keys are the same. Thus it's a very easy switch. As we mentioned at the top of this page the sound packs also work. You may get a copy of the Qube by visiting the link below.
