Hi All,  Could my JAWS 9.0.2169 be causing me problems with my use of my old 
Microsoft Word 2000 documents?
Since using the latest JAWS 9, I am having trouble with Word Documents.
As the day rolls along and I open, edit and close various word documents, 
JAWS begins to slow, especially while using Outlook Express e mail 
functions.
I will change applications and all I hear open will be JAWS and Outlook 
Express but when I attempt to shut down the computer, it will ask me about 
one or more word documents and if I want to save changes to them.  As I 
mentioned, I may have opened word documents and saved their changes before 
closing them but somehow they must still be live somehow.
If any of this makes sense, I would appreciate any tips or hints on how to 
prevent JAWS from slowing down as my day progresses without having to do a 
restart before the whole saga begins anew.  Thanks, Mitch
