I can expect that with a beta version. That is odd, I'll test it on
a station that I listen to. Does it open slow?

Only issue I've been having with 5.57 is that when I open up another instance
everything is slow. I.E. loading a stream from the net, opening up an audio
file, and closing that instance. This problem happened with the beta.

I've been telling Fs about how I have Windows Vista Home premium 64 bit.
My problem is Jaws won't tell me the names of the tracks when I hit the b key.
They told me they didn't know what the problem was. I'm begginning to loose my
patience with them as well.

Preach it brother! I had some problem with an earlier version
of Jaws and winamp. I wrote and called Fs and told them my problem.
I let them hear from my computer the problem. They fixed the problem
they told me where to go in the task manager. If you don't hear
from them after writing you might want to call them and let them
hear it for themselves from your end!

This has got to be incredibly frustrating, I was able to switch to
Window-eyes, and I'm very glad I did. I'm not saying that to start the old JAWS
verses window-eyes debate cause haven't we been down that road more times than
we care to count? Bottom line, FS needs to fix this, and many other problems
with JAWS. I mean, JAWS's interaction with Winamp should not cause this type
of problem, especially when other screenreaders don't exhibit the same sort of
behavior. You should be able to close Winamp whenever the hell you want to,
you should not have to kill it from the task manager!
the average user doesn't even know what, or where the task manager is,
how to kill a running process, or any other problem of that sort. Ok i'm
shutting up right now because I'm not trying to cause fights on here. Just
speaking my mind. I hope it's not a problem for everyone using JAWS 11.
If you are experiencing this, write to FS and tell them, and don't
quit until the problem is actually addressed.

Hi Folks,
I do not know if this is the case with earlier versions of JAWS, but
with JAWS 11 and Winamp 5.57, there is the return of the problem wherein JAWS
holds elements of Winamp in memory for anywhere from several seconds to several
minutes after you exit the Winamp program. The exact detailed nature of this
old issue is quite complex so I won't give any detailed report in this post.
It suffices to say that at least on my system and a few other people I have
spoken to, that if you exit Winamp and then a few seconds to a few minutes
later, you decide to load another file into Winamp by clicking on it from a
folder on your hard drive, that Winamp will not load and the file will not
play. You must go to the task manager and kill the Winamp process to rectify
the problem.
Using any other screen reader, Window-Eyes, NVDA, System Access, I do
not experience this problem.
