[blindLaw] Jaw and Google Chrome

Recently I observed some very sluggish behavior with the two programs.  But it seems intermittent.

All,

Writing with yet another Jaws question.  Within the past few weeks, something very strange, and very annoying, has started happening while using Chrome and Jaws.  Jaws will just stop speaking altogether.
Repeatedly.  I have to keep tabbing in and out of the window, and I often lose my place as well.  This is introduced a huge time suck into legal research.  Note, I know WL prefers IE, which is rich considering how out of date the browser is, but I use Chrome (which doesn't crash every 30 minutes and can actually open PDFs).  I've never had this problem before and it isn't just happening on WL.  Is anyone else experiencing this/ have people either found a work-around or contacted Vispero about it?
