Hi Mark, This is exactly what I do. I prefer to close the screen reader altogether when using self-voicing applications. With Freedom Box, it seems to increase its performance if you get the screen reader out of the way altogether. All the best -- Computer Room Services: the long cane for blind computer users.

However you might like to consider unloading JFW altogether, and re-loading it after your Freedombox session. Obviously then, you'll need shortcut keys set up for both applications.

Once in the Freedombox program, I seem to be unable to access the Config in JAWS. I am using JFW 6.1. Can anyone offer advice please? Thanks.
