Thanks, but no it's not that. I have a six month old duel core PC with 2GB RAM 
in it. It all shuts down very quickly with JAWS 9 or earlier and there are no 
performance issues iwth my PC at all. It is only when I am running JAWS 10 that 
this issue occurs and whilst it is waiting to log off the hard drive doesn't 
make much sound at all, as if the PC is just waiting there. Then after a while 
it suddenly springs bakc to life again.

As I say, it works fine without JAWS 10 running.

Also, my hard drive was newly formatted a few days ago and the only software on 
the PC is Vista, Office 2003 and Live Mail and Messenger.

Hi peter,
     Maybe it's not jaws it might be your computer.  I noticed when I had XP 
running on a slower computer the programs like Jaws and other programs took 
longer to run.  You might want to defrag your computer.  Do this overnight so 
that you won't have the temptation to do anything with it.  Then after that see 
if things work better.

  I've noticed that FS haven't bothered to fix the issue where log off/shutdown 
takes over 30 seconds to happen whilst running JAWS 10. It still only does this 
with JAWS 10, not any other version of JAWS or whilst JAWS isn't running.

  Anybody else still having this.

  Also notice the issue of JAWS jumping in to forms mode as a page has loaded 
still exists. Thought they might have given us the option of JAWS not going in 
to forms mode when a page loads as myself and several others have raised it.

  Peter
