Chris and list, just to confirm that yes, control shift escape does work 
with Windows XP; it's a hotkey I almost forget exists.

Hi, I get this as well using JAWS 9 under Vista Home Premium. If you want to
get to the Task Manager though, just press control shift escape. Not sure if
it works under XP, but I'm sure it does. Hope that helps.
