Dorothy, if you think the problem is due to downloads while on-line, why not go off-line and see if this makes a difference. Could of course be due to AVG or whatever running. This really causes Jaws to stutter on my machine.

Thank you Dave I wonder if being on line makes a difference? I have eventried putting Lunar to sleep but seems not to make any difference otherthan I cannot bear to look at screen I am listening more than Looking and did not put Lunar back on my revamped laptop which is almost empty. I even bought Kaspersky thinking it was AVG, on the whole I feel the laptop Word moves faster but may be imagination. Is there a maximum or average typing speed in Word do you know I do have windows updates set on Auto. Oh well Iguess some days are good and others not. In this weather my internetconnection has gone and come back 4 times since yesterday.the telephone hasheld mercifully Touch wood . now? Could it be the Processor. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Taylor" <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, January 11, 2008 12:19 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Typing in Word slownessHi, you'll probably find it is slow when there's a virous scan or windows update download or something going on at the same time. All I can suggestis type away and let the computer catch up!

I am using Jaws 9 Office 2002 XP Home Lunar 6. I think I try to cut down on programmes running,, and I do not understand why it varies from day to day.I often feel frustrated because when I could see to type I could move at65words a minute. The sludginess is not in typing Emails. Is there anythingin Ms Word I can remove to speed it up?
