Well folks, two issues here, the run-a-way JAWS and the infamous reply to sender. Reply to sender works quite well - on very particular emails - but on others, oh well, that's life in the Big City. This has been true for a good number of JAWS versions so nothing new. The run-a-way JAWS seems to be much more pronounced with 11 (on W7 as I do not have 11 on my XP machine) The case of the disappearing JAWS is far more pronounced on W7. If you just happen to arrow up or down in an email and encounter a line which says "include a picture" well, just say "Good Bye JAWS" and re-start JAWS.

I found often just shutting down the pc and leaving it a while,is a good tip ----- Original Message ----- From: stephen faill <mailto:stephen.faill@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, July 17, 2010 4:48 PM Subject: Re: a jaws 11 problem hello list. ok this was really doing my head in here, but i have sorted it out now. i waited for replies here on this list and checked out sites on the internet, but i eventually reverted to doing a system restore. i took my machine back a few days and everything is back to normal. thanks to those who replied here. regards. stephen faill From: Alan Safier <mailto:a.safier@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, July 17, 2010 1:26 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: a jaws 11 problem I have the same problem with JAWS 10.
