Hi. Thanks for the tip. That language bar keeps getting turned on. I turn it off and some time later, it's back again. Oh I just remembered, Jaws has a setting to disable the language bar in basic settings windows parameters. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Gower" <mikegower@xxxxxxxxx>

It sounds like Jaws is reading information from the system tray. One
option is to remove the language icon from the desktop, in which case
Jaws shouldn't read it. To do this, go to Control Panel> Regional and
Language Options>Languages Tab(CTRL+TAB once to get there) then select
the details button.
This will open the Text Services and Input Languages screen. Select
the Language Bar and deselect Show the Language Bar on the Desktop.
That should resolve your issue, if not the new JAWS behaviour, grin.

Grins, seems that everyone's having JAWS 8 problems today. Try changing
your verbosity settings to a level other than advanced. By default
advanced verbosity will tell JAWS not to speak as much information as it
would at either beginner or intermediate levels. Hope that helps.
