[JAWSLite] Re: jaws 10 crashes

I don't know as the only way I can get out of the freeze of jaws is to 
alt+F4 everything in my task bar.
IE7 is what I am using, but I have to kill it until I get down to that 
stupid little dialog.
Very annoying.
Oh well, FS has a bug report.

Does Internet Explorer crash when this happen, or does it remain open?

Thanks,
Everett
