Hi Chris,
Well, it never did, before, or else AVG just started popping up this 
balloon, for which I'm not put out with them, but it would be nice to know 
how to disable it. Have any idea? Either for disabling that display or, 
alternatively, for fixing Jaw's focus so it doesn't get fooled?
thanks.

Hello Daniel.

I suspect jaws for Windows is reporting the message balloon.

P.S., while waiting to hear if anyone recognizes this problem. It happens
whether or not my message window is maximized at the moment. And, I was
wrong to think it was a message that was on the status line. I was confused
when I thought that. It's just a ghostly intrusion right in the message I'm
writing as I'm writing it. Weird. I've just switched back to my Jaws 7,
which has been great for more than a year. I'll try to fix these new issues
soon if I get some help.

Here's another interesting thing Jaws 8 is doing that's never before
happened to me. as I was composing and spell checking an email a moment ago,
I kept being interrupted, and the Jaws focus kept being dislodged, by an
announcement that, I suppose, AVG was running some sort of email scan. I can
only imagine it was telling me that some new messages were coming into my
Inbox and it was scanning those for my protection. But wherever on the
screen those messages would actually be appearing if I could see them (it's
hard to believe they're printing themselves right into my email message, of
course), Jaws never before spoke them at all, which was okay with me, if
this is the stupid alternative.
I have to confess that while this was happening, I was so disconcerted that
I can't remember now whether when it happened I was writing or spell
checking with the message window maximized or not. Jaws 8 is a little
eccentric about this for me, and I'm just learning when it's actually
necessary to maximize the window and when things will work okay without
bothering to do that. But it could make some sort of difference in terms of
Jaws having its focus pulled away . I mean, if I'm in the reduced-size
message window, and something comes up elsewhere on the screen, I suppose it
might pull the Jaws focus away. But even then, I've never had it happen so
that something simply intruded on what I was doing, as if the AVG message,
in this case, was actually inserting itself in the message I was composing.
I know that wasn't what was happening, of course, but I've never before had
Jaws screw up by sort of sharing focus between where I was working and some
other screen element.

Very strange. Any good ideas? Thanks.

P.S. It's not happening right now, while I'm writing this message,but I just
pressed Insert down arrow to read the status line, and there's the AVG
notice right alongside the new, overly informative stuff about how my POP 3
server is downloading some mail. Jaws's focus in OE has gotten a little
wild, this version. things like that come up on the status line and then
won't go away, even though I perform other email tasks that should be
displacing that information.But that's sort of an extension of this problem,
I guess, unless it's a clue to something? Not keen enough to figure it out
by myself. Foocus issues, I mean.
