Bruce. macafee can play little games with jaws. when the problem happens 
like you loose focus or jaws seems to stop, go up and down with your jaws 
cursor and see if you find anything. You might find something like "Your 
virus software has just installed an update. I want to..." right after that 
it will say continue what I was doing. get your jaws cursor to the continue 
what I was doing and left click it. Lets see if that works
