Dear list,
Another problem with Beta (this is the problem that frequently occurs and requires JAWS Repair): For whatever reason, JAWS does not read web pages after using Adobe Reader 8.0 under Windows Vista. This behavior affecjs any application that uses HTML text, such as IE 7, Outlook, and Help and Support Center. The Virtual Cursor might fail, requiring JAWS Repair to be performed to restore the original settings. This usually occurs after using Adobe Reader 8 to read PDF documents. (I've sent a feedback to FS about this problem). I hope that this problem would be resolved soon.
Cheers,
Joseph
