It has nothing to do with JAWS. I just disable the agent; and have found (and have also seen other messages - on other llists - confirming) that Winamp has become increasingly more buggy. (It tries to play files that it cannot, like some .asx files which Windows Media Player can play no problem.) If you want to try with the Winamp Agent enabled, go with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cher Bosch To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, December 11, 2006 5:43 PM Subject: Re: WinAmp Agent I have heard that several years ago, and that is why I raised the question. Do you know if it is still an issue with XP and recent versions of JAWS?

If so, is it adequate to disable it from the system tray or do I need to uninstall/reinstall WinAmp and this time not install that component? Thanks.
