It may be that the cursor is set to block instad of underline. If this is 
the case, JAWS will say the character the cursor is on over and over again.

Hi Jim,

The guicursor option controls cursor blink rates in the various editing
modes.
To turn blinking off in all modes try:
:set guicursor=a:blinkon0
