Hi Bob.  I have had the same problem with Control being spoken with the
press of any key as well.  When it would occur the only way I could
resolve it was to restart Jaws.  Then it was fine again.  What causes
Control to be spoken that way to begin with I honestly couldn't tell
you.  It didn't happen often enough for me to seek out a permanent
solution.  Actually, with the update to Jaws version 5 and then 6 I
don't think I've experienced the problem since.  Ha, I say that and now
watch it start doing it again.

I've run into a problem right out of the shoot with JFW.  It seems JFW
doesn't like my cordless keyboard.  I'm getting some strange behaviour.
The
main difficulty is that I can not use my special menu keys or multimedia
keys while JFW is running.

Another problem is that sometimes JAWS wants to say control before every
key
pressed.  Pressing the left control key stops this for a while.

It also seemed for a while that JFW was confused about the state of
capitalization.  It seems to be working now but it was a problem while
trying to authorize the software.

I have JFW 6.0 running on Win98se, 16bit color 1024 by 768 pixels, and
mainly default configuration.  My keyboard is a Logitech Itouch cordless
keyboard running an early version of the Itouch keyboard manager.

I hope I don't have to update the Itouch software as I don't like newer
versions as much.

Thanks

Bob
