hmmm, stranger than strange, well this reload seems to be a bit buggy, I'll 
work with it some more and shut up on advice to those using or trying to use it 
until I get some hard core results myself.

good luck all,
elf

  I use firefox4 with webvisum on two XP machines at home and it works very 
good wiht jaws11. With NVDA it works like a charm. The only thing you should do 
is to download the newest webvisum pluggin from the site and install it in the 
FF4.

    Yadiel, do I remember correctly that you use Windows 7? I have XP, and I'm 
wondering if that explains the difference. On my system, Firefox 4 was 
definitive that Webvisum doesn't work with it, and on the add-ons page, I was 
sent to a Webvisum page that instructed me to download Firefox 3.5.

    Adrian, I can report that firefox 4 and webvisum works pretty well 
together. webvisum made an update a couple of weeks after firefox 4 was release 
and it works fine. One thing to keep in mind is that now capcha solution is not 
as accurate as previous version. People in the webvisum community tells me that 
that is something they hope will change in a future update.

    About a year ago I found that an add-on was causing long delays with 
Firefox. Is it possible you recently installed one? Or accepted an update to 
one? It might be worth deactivating them one by one to see if the culprit is 
there. 

    I do find that Webvisum slows Firefox down. When I use Firefox a lot, I 
deactivate Webvisum until I need it. 

    Several listers report that Webvisum doesn't work with Firefox 4, so it's 
wise to stay with 3.6.  

    I used to be a Firefox enthusiast, but for me IE8 works better with JAWS 
11.

    Heya folks, 

    for awhile now when I load firefox 3.6.16 the latest update in the 3.6 
version before it now goes to version 4, running Jaws 11 when I load firefox it 
takes quite awhile to load and in the same time I totally loose Jaws speech for 
a minute or 2 till firefox finally loads with web visum etc. Is there a work 
around for this? and what maybe causing this long loading up as firefox never 
use to be like this. Ive tried installing version 4 but it doesn't work that 
well with Jaws 11. 
    I can handle waiting alittle longer for the load but I don't like losing 
speech, this losing speech can also happen in some websites that I use with 
firefox 

    Any help here would be appreciated. 

    Cheers, 

    Jim
