Ian, it might be as simple as a sticky keyboard. Try another keyboard for a while. Failing that, re install Jaws. And failing that, I'd back up my important files, run a good spyware client and hope for the best.

Over the past few days I've noticed strange happenings. When I log on to my own profile and launch JFW with ctrl alt j, a message comes up before the program is fully launched. It says something like "Incomplete image in .ini". Jaws then launches but windows behaves strangely. It's almost as though everything is running one level back. So when I launch an app from the desktop I get the properties dialogue and have to close it down before I can launch the app. Then, when in Outlook Express, for example, I can't tab round to the preview pane and when I attempt to open a message, its properties dialogue comes up and I have to close it before I can open the message. It then takes two attempts to delete the message. Other strange phenomena include the start menu only flashing up briefly and then disappearing. Anyone know what's causing this and how I can put it right? It seems to have started quite spontaneously. Cheers now.
