Hi Carol, That sounds like the same kindda problem I'm having however, a reboot 
/ reload doesn't fix the problem. I tried uninstalling / reinstalling JAWS 12 
several times and also did the repair install thing it has. I'm now using NVDA 
and JAWS 10 for the moment.

Original message:
I don't know if it's relevant or helpful, but I upgraded to Jaws 12 a few weeks 
ago and suddenly noticed the other day that I couldn't read letter for letter
or word for word across lines. 
 
However, a reboot did solve the problem and I wonder if, though perhaps more 
prevalent in these later versions, it's not too big a deal to reboot sometimes.

BTW: I did unload Jaws to start with but it started really acting up and I was 
forced to close down on that occasion.)

documents and text areas in IE8 using Windows 7

I've installed the JAWS 10 demo and it appears  to be
reading Word 2003 documents fine when I use the arrow
keys + text areas in IE8. It is JAWS 11 and 12 that  have
this problem. Not sure if it is something to do with the
FS mirror display driver.
