Any chance this is a laptop and your mouse pointer is active? You can
usually deactivate them. When I have these symptoms, that's been the cause.

Subject: [gui-talk] Office 2010 Difficulty
Greetings.
I'm having a frustrating time with one aspect of Office 2010. I'm using a
HP 64-bit machine running Windows 7 and the latest version of JAWS 12. The
problem is this: when using Outlook to compose or reply to a message or
when composing a document in Word, I begin to type and suddenly find myself
in either a new message, a new Word document or a dialog such as "find and
replace". It's as if when typing, the cursor is being moved around and
lands in other fields. This happens especially when I am typing quickly
(over 120 wpm). I don't know if this is a JAWS problem or an Office 2010
problem. I initially thought it was the former but I started a document,
unloaded JAWS and kept typing and eventually ended up in another field
anyway so it may be a Windows 7 problem or one with my machine.
Also, occasionally Outlook or another program becomes unresponsive for a few
seconds. JAWS still talks but it takes a while for the program to wake up.
Has anyone else encountered these problems and, if so, what was the
solution? And saying "get Window-eyes" isn't the answer I'm looking for as
this may not even be a screen-reader problem although I wonder.
T I A!
