Hello Kevin 
First of all the mouse pad has been disabled, and secondly it's from the start 
of writing any email whether it be in the reply or any other mode.
The scattering happens when you arrow through the text to proof read.
 Also it happens on the desc top with X P.

  Are you saying that you could be replying to an e-mail for example, come to 
read it back and find that what you thought you were keying at the top of the 
e-mail is scattered through the body of the e-mail you're replying to?

  What kind of keyboard are you using and where is the mousepad?  I'm wondering 
if you're inadvertently hitting the mousepad as you're keying which is moving 
you around the screen without you noticing.  Easily done with those mousepads 
that are more like a little joystick in the middle of the qwerty keyboard.

  Regards.

    Hi to all 
    In the past I posted about the problem we had with Jaws scattering text 
when writing emails, so over the weekend we installed N V D A and running on 
windows 7 and postbox express the same problem seems to still be with us.
    Surely not every screen reader does this.
    All seems fine until you arrow through what has been written then at this 
point it has a mind of it's own and puts the text where it feels fit.
    Any feedback on this annoying habit would be good.
    Thanks in advance.
    Hazel & Kim
