Issuing a pagedown or pageup while JAWS is speaking will temporarily change the rate of speech--it's supposed to. You just need to issue an Insert-Escape to refresh the screen and return to your default rate of speech. HTH. Take care....

I find if I unload jaws and reload it, it will resume normal behavior.
