You mentioned your Window-Eyes giong chriticle and dying? I find it weird as I have not been able to reproduce it at all. Could you go into a bit more detail? Feel free to email me privately off-list or whatever. But I thought I'd direct this out to GW-Info as well, just in case they too, have had similar issues. I find it funny, that although this speech issue is happening for Pat and a lot of others, it doesn't for me.
