I've had issues with some edit boxes, and not being able to read the
text with the arrow keys, and I've usually found that closing all other
windows solves this issue. That said, Facebook on the Vista machine
using IE 8 is the only time I've run into the original poster's problem
of not everything I type actually getting written to the edit box.

Even with WE 7.11 there are some issues with certain edit boxes. I
find that many larger edit boxes where one can provide comments, WE
will often not read the text unless going into browse mode first.
Then you need to get out of browse mode to continue typing.
Using the arrow keys while filling in the form will generate a beep
or even trying to backspace over a misspelled word, all the feedback
one gets is a beep; although a it is a beep with a low tone.
I thought it might be a web site issue however other text to speech
programmes do OK. Even forcing the screen to be maximized doesn't
get around this issue on those types of sites. The only time I have
achieved some measure of success is when calling up the task manager
(control+shift+escape) highlighting the IE window under the
applications tab, then pressing the tab key until I land on the
switch to button. Then the application behaves better with WE. This
is rare, so do knot expect it to work every time.
