I had that happen around the time I installed I.E. 7. My problem was that the 
display settings had changed. Below are some FS-recommended settings another 
lister provided.

1.  minimize all applications (windows key+m)
2.  Unselect the item if it's checked (control+spacebar)
3.  Activate the context menu (windows application key)
note:  this is the key to the left of the right control key on standard windows 
keyboards.
4.  Press the letter r to activate the display properties
5. on the Themes Page: set to windows xp. To change press alt plus down arrow 
to open 
6.  Control Tab to the Desktop Tab Set background to bliss. Set position  
stretch 
7.  Press Control Tab to Screen Saver Set to none] 
8.  Control Tab to Appearance Tab Set  to Windows Classic Style Color Scheme 
Windows Standard Font Size Normal 
9.  Control+tab to the settings tab, color:  16 bit, resolution:  1024 by 768
10.  Tab to okay and hit enter

hello!
I'm running Jaws 7.10.500 with IE 7.05, and the cursor is jumping to different 
lines when I'm moving through the menu's.  Is there a fix for this naggy 
problem?   Jim.
