?Well, it maybe your system. Mine doesn't hang at all. In fact, I found version 12 a huge improvement over version 11. Still, it is not at the level of version 10, which in my opinion was, and still is, the best version of jaws available if you are using a windows XP system and a pretty good screen reader if you are using vista (12 beats 10 on vista though).

FS should have never released this version, because it has a lot of problems. The biggest problem I have is it hangs up with internet explorer on web pages, not allowing you to read through a page or tab through the links. It's not my computer, it's jaws, and this issue needs to be fixed. Hopefully, they'll address this problem in future releases, and stop releasing products that don't work right. Yadiel J.
