JAWS for Windows – JHOOKLDR.EXE

Jhookldr.exe and jfw.exe install with Jaws for Windows by Freedom Scientific. Jaws for Windows works with your PC to make software applications and the Internet accessible for blind and low vision computer users. With its internal software speech synthesizer and the computer’s sound card, information from the screen is read aloud. Jaws also outputs to refreshable Braille displays.

If you need screen reading or braille output, you'll probably find it most convenient to let these files run on system startup and leave it running all the time. More info can be found at http://www.freedomscientific.com/fs_products/software_jaws.asp.
