hmm, my point of view for this issue is, FS has add more features and add
more new scripts for supporting more programs but not the stability of the
program, this is compare between jaws 6.x and 7.0.

Install version seven: you have paid for it - or at least someone
has, and it is more stable, but by no means perfect. The types of
problems with Jaws are so various across different machines that it
is hard to know what to do in these situations, but version seven is
an improvement on six.
Perhaps a more useful approach is to ask yourself why you need to
have two screen readers? There is luxury in having the choice, and I
have that choice, so evaluate what you need to do and then decide
which screen reader does most thingns better.
