Thanks Steve, great minds think a like, as I did do that, although it was against my will. I wish I had a temporary way to disable it, so that if my sighted wife goes to use it it will work for her; I have a Dell inspiron though, and haven't found a key combination which lets me temporarily disable the touchpad, so I did do it permanently, and she's got to struggle with the keyboard to try and get it enabled for her to use it or help me. thanks. Chip

I have to do this on any laptop I use since the stupid thing always ends up clicking me into other windows.

I have been intermittently plagued by a problem like this, and it has the feel as if someone has been grabbing the mouse pointer and clicking all around in the window I'm working in. hearing the word "left" randomly spoken is my only clue. I thought this was a malfunction in the mousepad of my laptop, but maybe not if you're having the exact same problem. thanks.

For example, when in Outlook 2007, both whilst reading a message or simply on the message list, the word "graphic" will be spoken periodically. When in Windows Explorer and arrowing up or down a list of files, the file onto which I'm arrowing doesn't speak but some other information is spoken. At this point, the only applications which are running are Outlook 2007, Live Messenger and Windows Explorer - as well, of course, as WE7.1! I've unloaded WE and loaded another screenreader and looked at the running processes in Task Manager and see that WESERV.EXE is present. Is this process connected with WE, please, and, if so, should it still be loaded/running when WE isn't? Alternatively, I've seen some references from a Google search suggesting it may be a trojan etc. This is under XP Home, SP3. Any suggestions gratefully received before I go ahead with various remedies, eg removing the WESERV.EXE process and/or uninstalling Webbie. Thanks in advance. --- Regards Richard Bartholomew E-Mail: [email protected] __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 4246 (20090715) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
