      While a lot of people seem to be having this problem, I have never 
experienced this at all with JAWS 7.  Any time JAWS has lost focus there was a 
legitimate reason such as another task starting and grabbing focus.  In 
addition, I have had virtually no crashes or lockups with JAWS 7.  The few I 
have had have been due to memory shortages caused by too many memory intensive 
applications such as Acrobat reader, Microsoft Word, & OmniPage all running at 
the same time.  I do not re-boot my system and find I am generally good for at 
least a week without problems.  I use a 3.0 GHz machine with 512 Meg memory and 
have found JAWS 7 to be nearly flawless.  It seems odd to me everyone else is 
having so much trouble.

        Is it just me or is jaws really messing up? I have seen jaws switch to 
another program for no reason.

        I have xp home, jaws 7 pro, 1gig, 2.8 mhz.

        Getting really tired of alt tabbing to regain focus.

        And this too shall pass away!
