I am not able to duplicate this. When I use on
with words and numbers I get * after tabbing away
from the password box, but nothing when I'm
typing. If I use on with characters words and
numbers I get * for every key I press.

There has been times when the Window-Eyes
keyboard echo creates additional stars when
entering passwords. This happens when entering a
numeric character, for instance WE will say star
twice when entering a password that is mixed.
This appears to be related to the keyboard echo
setting. In the Voice setting under keyboard if
I have it set to characters then WE will only
say star once for each character in a password
field regardless of whether it is alphabetic or numeric.
My preferred setting for the Voice is Words and
Numbers. Now in many password fields WE will say
star for each alphabetic character. WE will say
star star for each numeric character. And if the
digits are in the middle, sometimes WE will say
the alphabetic characters out loud when they follow the digits.
For example if I have a password that is
GW12Micro WE will often say star star star star star Micro.
This is usually on a web page that requires some
type of authentication. Or on a system that is
logging into a server some where out on the world wide web.
