Hi in this case it does not sound like jaws is the problem it sounds like there might be a problem with oe not responding. Have you try to send a large file. If so it might not have gone threw and might be trying to send over and over again. If so oe will crash when trying to close it and will stop responding and bring most programs to a holt.

This didn't happen the first few times i ran outlook express with 7.1, but now, whenever I close OE, I lose speech entirely. I assume the jaws window is up, but I get no speech no matter what I press. Oddly enough, however, when I shut down the computer via key strokes, speech returns during the shut down process. This is a terrible inconvenience. I should not have to keep my OE window open all of the time in order to retain speech. It looks like another beta might have been a wise choice before releasing this version of jaws.
