Jim,have you tried putting jaws in the task bar? If you go into options in the jaws dialog box, I think under basics there's an option to put jaws on the task bar, instead of on the screen
Don't know if that will work but it's worth giving it a go. Jim .----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Williams" <jwbr33694@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Tiddy, No keystrokes generate any response from JAWS when its behind one of these boxes. My wife has to click on the box to get rid of it. She tells me there is cancel, retry and abort showing on the box in front of Jaws but even using Alt plus the first letter of any word does not work. I thought IE 8 wouldn't work with JAWS 9 anyway. Thanks for your response anyway.

Can't you just flip the windows over using alt-tab? I've never heard of a "always on top" setting for Jaws. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of mostafa almahdy Sent: 06 August 2010 12:49 To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Settings query Dear Friend Jim Williams: you may survey one of the following: one: maximize the current foreground; since that what's JAWS ever prefers. two: update your Internet explorer to version Eight for superior performance. three: repair JAWS to desexualise some erroneous may tend to occur.

Pressing the JAWS key along with other keys such as B for box does nothing. JAWS is till there in the background because my wife tells me its there. She has to click on something to get rid of it. Is this something to do with settings? I know with pre XP software settings was in Control Panel. I want to checkifJAWS is set for "always on top".
