Description
JAWS reads something unrelated to the "Uninstall out-of-date versions" dialogs when these dialogs are showed, the phrase ends with "javascraber.html", so seems like some JavaScrabber info stayed somewhere.
Neither dialogs' title nor text are read by default. When I click to the dialog text JAWS reads only first paragraph.
Comments
Verified this bug on 9 b20 PIT build. The bug has been fixed. The JAWS screen reader reads the titles and text.

This bug mentioned that JAWS screen reader is used. However, I cannot verified this bug, since JAWS is NOT a free software.
