Carol and Roger,
You'll probably hate me for this, but I'm not having problems with the read
to end even with the read to end script changing to voice to one of those
high quality voices. After hitting escape to stop the read to end, or after
it stops by itself, it is true that it takes it a couple seconds to get my
regular speech going, but the speech hasn't frozen up. Using xp, sp3, with
the beta, 512 megs of ram, maybe a little more.

Hi Tom, and all,
Thank you very much for your suggestion about turning off the read-to-me
app. I tried this with several programs and it seems to have taken care
of the problem.

I had this issue starting yesterday. I found that when Read-To-End
finished, or if I stopped the reading at any point,
Window-Eyes failed to speak. Window-Eyes was still running because I
could hear the Window-Eyes sounds when I Alt-Tabbed to the Control Panel.
The only way to fix this was to use the Kill Wineyes script and restart
it. I soon figured out it was not only happening in E-mail but with all
types of read to end in all programs. After experimenting with unloading
anti-virus and other programs, I started checking scripts. I found that
when the Read-To-Me script was running that Read-To-End with
Control+Shift+r didn't work properly. When I disabled the script, it did.
I also found that when scripting status was off that Read To End worked
as expected. So, if you tried the Read-To-Me script, I suggest you remove
it for now.

Okay, this is really unusual. I have tried this in both Word 2007
and Thunderbird messages. I am running WE beta and Win7, 64-bit.
I can type info into Word or in a Thunderbird message and use
read-to-end it works fine. Once it has finished reading, however, WE
will no longer speak. I have tried different things like closing the
programs. Just for a test, I loaded one of my BlindGamers games and
closed it. Once I closed the game, WE started speaking again. The BG
game uses MS Anna. I also loaded NVDA, and speech worked for that
program, but once I closed it, WE did not speak. I then opened the BG
game again and closed it, returning speech to WE. I am using VW Paul
for both WE and NVDA.
