If you are having trouble with JFW 6, I recommend doing a complete repair 
of JAWS and manually configuring JFW. All problems I have had with JAWS 6 
to date have been due to the merge program not working properly. 
Configuring manually solved the problems.

One useful test to see if the merge could be at fault is to enter the 
following in the run dialog box, with JFW unloaded:


jaws6 /default

This runs the JAWS default settings, and if the problem you have does not 
manifest itself, then it's a safe bet taht the merge was at fault. This 
method worked for me, and I'm passing it along in case someone else can be 
helped by it. If you are not familiar with the run dialog box, below are 
step-by-step instructions for the default test.

1. Unload JAWS. Hit jaws key+F4, and when asked if you are sure if you 
want to unload JAWS, hit enter.

2. Then hit windows key+R. Type

jaws6 /default

and hit enter.

3. You are now running JAWS with the defaults intact. You can alwasy go 
back to your regular settings by unloading JAWS and just running jaws6 
without the /default perameter.

If running with the defaults clears up the problem you are having, then 
you can seriously look at the merge as the source of your trouble.

I hope this can help someone.
