yes i have the same problem. the same thing happens when you open the menus in google. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gerald Levy To: JFW list Sent: Sunday, July 04, 2010 11:20 AM Subject: JAWS Behaving Sluggishly On Google Home Page Happy Indepencdence Day to all! This morning, for no apparent reason, JAWS 9 started behaving very sluggishly on my classic Google home page. When I type a search phrase into the search edit field, there is a delay between the time I type each character and the time JAWS echoes it; JAWS does not echo each character instantly as it is typed. Also, there is a considerable lag between the time I hit the Enter key and the time JAWS announces "Enter". Yet, when I switch to the IGoogle home page, JAWS behaves normally. I am using IE 8 with XP Pro, and have not changed any settings. Why would JAWS work fine with IGoogle but not with classic Google? Has anyone else encountered this problem? Thanks. Gerald
