Well, it took me some time to figure out how to restart it, but after I solved 
my IE issue, it works 99 percent of the time on my PC.  Usually, it works now 
on my laptop, but now, I hardly have to kill it anyway on both machines, since 
solving IE's add-on issue.  Mark

  In my experience it does not work more than half of the time.  Of course, you 
do have to reload JAWS with a hotkey- it does not restarrt automatically.  
Usually, I try to manually load a different version of JAWS because usually the 
one that died will not revive even after doing the 'kill' and then reloading 
manually.

  Hi listers,

  I'm using Jaws v. 8.0.422.  When I use the kill Jaws command 
  (insert-start-F4) I hear a very short buzz from my CPU and Jaws does 
  not restart.  I have determined that Jaws is unloading, but something 
  is preventing it from starting again.  This feature worked perfectly 
  for me in the original version of Jaws 8, but not since.  I am 
  reluctant to update because I was running a more current version of 8 
  but rolled back because of some  intolerable problems.

  Ok, so if anyone has any hints on resolving this issue, I'm all ears.

  Thanks,
  Norma
