Hi Chip,
You are right.
This morning, once I had to reboot my computer. The other time it
happened, I didn't have to reboot, I just unloaded and reloaded Window-Eyes

Folks,
An easier way to restore speech is to his control+\ to go to window-eyes,
alt+f4 to unload window-eyes then control+alt+w to restore window-eyes.
alt+In
word files, sometimes you must close and reopen them after reloading
window-eyes.

Besides this, I've also experienced many times Window-Eyes 7.2 and versions
preceding this one suddenly speaking just the first few syllables of lines
or words, and even after closing WE, and reopening WE, the problem
continues. The only way to stop this behavior in my experience is by
rebooting. It seems that this problem starts to happen more when using
Firefox than any other program, but also may have happened while using IE as
well. However, I only use IE when absolutely necessary, so can't say this
happens with any consistency or not.
Ah yes, it also continues to happen when in the Windows task manager, and
after ending and restarting WE there as well.
Hope this input doesn't inadvertently digress too far from the problem under
discussion. When this happens, I swear at WE, but most of the time I swear
by it.
Thanks for your indulgence,
Larry
