[gui-talk] Problem with JAWS on the Internet

[qubit]

I think it must be IE8 -- I have the same problem with jaws11, and I thought 
it might be a new bug in jaws, but you say it fails in jaws9, so there must 
be some kind of lockup in IE8 when you hit that keystroke.  (Is that the alt 
key?)
Come to think of it, I have a lot of problem with IE8 locking up, even when 
I do nothing.  I click on a link to load a page, and IE8 will get launched, 
and I'll sit for minutes, looking at the email waiting for the page to load, 
then hit alt+tab until I get to IE, kill it, then click on the link again 
and it will load.  This happens so often I can almost bet on it happening 
every time I open a new email containing a link.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Is there a way to configure IE to keep it from jamming?
I think it happens most often when it is the first time I load a particular 
page.  But still, the frequency of lockups is really unacceptable.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Subject: [gui-talk] Problem with JAWS on the Internet


I seem to have problems while I'm using the internet with JAWS.
Sometimes I am on a page and need to access the menu bar (like
the file or favorites menu), I press that corresponding keystroke
and JAWS suddenly stops responding and I have to restart it
again. Does anyone know why I'm having this problem?
For your information: I am running Windows XP with JAWS 9.0 and
Internet explorer 8.
