hello there; another thing you can do is? uninstall the wlm2011 and install the earlier version. if you wish I could send to you. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, January 05, 2011 4:28 PM Subject: RE: JAWS and Windows Messenger Howdy, I just installed Windows Live yesterday, so I'm running that particular version. I'm also running JFW 10.0.1139. What has now been happening is that my friend types something in, and JAWS will read it the first time but when I try to use my jaws cursor or other commands, I can't get it to read anything but graphics and the menu bar. It's annoying.

I've loaded it on to my Vista machine with JAWS 10. I know.I know, I need to upgrade, and will do that in a while. Anyway, when trying to use it with someone, I couldn't get JAWS to read the messages that I was typing or the messages that my friend was typing to me. I used to use it on a Netbook computer with Windows XP and JAWS 10, but something's different here. Do I need specific scripts or certain commands to use it? It's kind of necessary. Thanks. Jim
