Hello Shirley,

Just a tiny note to acknowledge receipt of your three letters.

I hope you received my text today from Southend.

I will write tomorrow some time. We are having our screen door fitted around
8:00 tomorrow morning.

With my love,

Keith XXXX

Hi 

Has anyone considered that different versions of windows make JAWS unstable
In this environment ? 

I gather from many that XP is fine - stable in fact with JAWS .. Those of
you having problems with iplayer - are you using windows 7? Because I have
had all the same problems as recorded here. 

Basically, is this a conflict with windows 7 rather than iplayer?
