It seems to be multiple issues now--when someone sends me an msn message, it just sits there and reads the title of the window, like "<person>-conversation" over and over and over until I actually go to that window ----- Original Message ----- From: The Elf To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 11:33 AM Subject: Re: the new laptop:jaws issues ah, have you gotten rid of the preview pane yet? folks say that that thing can get in the way and block your reading.

I haven't noticed this problem before, but with some edit boxes, I can't arrow up or down. I'm using jaws 9, with xp pro. This is mainly happening in Outlook Express, notepad seems to be working great. Your ideas would be great, I'd like to get this fixed if possible. TIA,
