Hi Tris, Many thanks for your reply. My problem is still persisting. I have reproduced it twice already this morning. Pressing escape does nothing. Interrogating the window title, Jaws says: "Title is: Jaws for Windows 8.0 Windows Internet Explorer Menu Bar". Bear in mind here, please, that this is the FS page about Jaws 8.0, and I am using Jaws 7.10, with the update to use I E 7. The PC cursor is then currently active, not the virtual one. Pressing the Alt Key, Jaws says: "Leaving Menu Bar, Menu Bar". I haven't made any changes to the custom settings. I then have no option but to close down I E 7. It's very strange, and I've never experience this behaviour before installing I E 7.

What is happening on your system definitely should not be the case, in fact Jaws should be able to remember the actual position on the web page you left after highlighting your text copying and then pasting it into motepad when you return to IE7. In most cases the IE7 menubar is not visible until you press the alt key whichi activates the menu bar and makes it appear on screen from its otherwise hidden position (although this can be changed it is not important for Jaws users to do). I have a theory which you could try which is to use the escape key when you hear "menubar" on the return trip back to IE7 and then use the cursor keys, does this at least give you the web page text again? This doesn't fully answer the problem of exactly what is going on but at least we would be closer. Also have you made any particular custom settings or merge settings from a previous Jaws installation perhaps? Regards.
