Hi Adrian

I have Skype and MSN shut down. Surprisingly enough, tonight the Internet has 
been really fast. So perhaps BT in this area have had a temporary problem 
they've now overcome. Fingers crossed.

  Hi Barbara,

  I know this could be a stupid question, but do you have many programmes 
opened at the time?

  I had a simular problem a few months ago when reading Emails.

  I eventually found out, if my Skype was turned on, it would slow down JAWS in 
reading my Emails.  If you have Skype, it might be worth your while in turning 
it off, and see if this works.

    Hi All

    Well my Internet problems aren't much better and I was hoping someone could 
answer a question for me. My Internet is very slow and pages take a long time 
to load no matter the time of day. When I type in an address and press Enter, I 
hear JAWS reading out the percentage loaded and it climbs up very slowly. Many 
times it just freezes or I close it down as it's taking too long. Sometimes if 
I use the JAWS cursor it will read "Opening page" And then the address. And 
others it says "Page found, waiting for reply". Does it sound like I have a 
setting not set correctly? When I restart the computer the Internet works very 
quickly for about 20 minutes and then back to slow again until I restart the 
computer. This is extremely time consuming and not a realistic way to work.

    Any suggestions or ideas?
