[jaws-uk] Re: Strange Shifted State

Hi

I am getting this problem and have been for a long time.

At work using 5.1 on 2000 on a network, I get the symptom where my shift key
is stuck down, a press on the shift key cures it.  I have had this problem
with earlier versions of jaws and also have had my keyboard changed with no
success.

At home using 6.1 with XP Home I occasionally get a problem where my Windows
key appears to be stuck down, this is not very often but it certainly messes
me up on a particular website.  When I press the tab key on this site I am
thrown into a search box and am out of the original site  and I noticed that
every key that I pressed was preceded with the windows key.

Hi Tim,

I'm using the latest version of 6.1 with XP home on the machine where I
notice this problem most.

I also have XP pro and 2000 on other machines which I use less often but
will try to take note and report back if it happens on these other machines.

Norman,

Have you downloaded the update to JFW6.1, which was posted I think on the 
15th April.  This is supposed to have cured a number of problems, though I'm

not sure if this is one of them.

I haven't noticed this problem with either version,and have so far been 
impressed with version 6.1 (both versions).

Regards,
Tim Pennick

Can anyone add to or comment on this problem: every so often with JAWS 6.1
in IE, the keyboard seems to go into a shifted state in which every key
pressed is spoken as "control" + the key.  Pressing control by itself cures
the problem, but only temporarily.  Sometimes the confusion is eventually
cleared up and the problem goes away; sometimes I have to reboot.

I don't think I had the problem with JAWS 6.0.

Cheers,

Norman
