I have heard of something called a dongle, but not sure what it is. I do know some people have jaws on a thumbdrive, which I think is also a memory stick?

Hi, That's what I thought, too. I run it on my desktop and on my laptop, but rarely do I run both machine32 bit. however to the subject I used both computers at same time, mainly for convenience but for safety this means the In box and specific folders like Jaws usa came in on both machiness simultaneously. It shouldn't make a damn bit of difference if I run them at the same time.

Too bad you had to burn a key to find out. You took one for the list, so to speak. Agree completely on the key insanity. There must be better ways for FS to verify that JAWS is running on just one computer.

I was cold booting the laptop, when it suddenly occured to me that I needed to plug in the Pearl camera so that I could use Open Book, so I plugged it into the USB port. When the login screen came up, JAWS told me that it had been authorized for an older version and that I needed to update the authorization. . When I attempted to do so, I told the activation routine to use the Internet, as I knew that my wi-fi was up by then. The client activator failed with an error 106. My hunch was that I'd lost my last activation key, so I checked fsactivate and confirmed this. This was subsequently verified during a call to FS tech support. So, if you're still experiencing that error 106 during activation, check to see if you have any keys left. You probably don't. Also, I guess on some machines like my laptop, it's best to insert USB devices either before powering up the machine or after the bootup process completes, to keep JAWS from getting confused about the hardware footprint. It ticks me off that questionable timing cost me a key. Like I said last Friday, this whole key business is a pain, and I won't hesitate to give FS a hard time about it when the opportunity presents itself. Surely I'm not the only one who hates this sort of stuff.
