I use the windows-d command all the time when streaming audio as well.
Stations often flash info on the screen and I hate it when my screen reader
starts playing DJ in the middle of a song.

Subject: Re: Beta loop problem
Just so you know, I watch movies all the time on my home theater system
and it does not matter to me whether they are described or not. That being
said, the command to shut Window-Eyes down or any window is alt-f4, not
control-f4. What happens if when you get in this state, you press
windows-d to focus the desktop?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] said the following on 7/12/2008 4:18 AM:
I had an interesting problem with W-E 7 beta 1 that cannot be easily
duplicated. There's a site where you can go and listen to a movie and it
doesn't cost anything. For those of us who are totally blind, that's all
we do anyway unless we're with someone who can fill in the action or we
can get descriptive video. The site is
power.listentoamovie.com
so I went there and found a movie that I thought I'd enjoy and listened
to it. That all went well but when I tried to leave the site the beta
wouldn't read the screen. I figured I could get out of the child window
for the site on my ISP and maybe restart my ISP again. That sometimes
works in getting the beta to read but not always. I got out of that
site's child window and back into my favorites, but that's where the loop
happened. When I tried to get out of there with ctrl-F4 it would tell me
that I was in the W-E shutdown screen. If I cancelled the shut down, it
would go back to my favorites, but everything I tried to do to get out of
my favorites would bring me back to the W-E shut down. I finally gave up
and did a reboot. I'm only reporting this one in case anyone else should
get a loop like this that can easily be duplicated. It was merely an
inconvenience in this case because the movie was over and I wasn't trying
to do anything but get back to my home page. I'm using Windows XP with
512 Mb of memory.
