Subject: [JAWS-Users] Am getting far more information than I want


My computer has been at the computer surgery for over a week.  It has been 
returned, but my word!  aren't I having problems trying to work out just 
what is going on.  I am waiting for a call from the junior computer doctor 
but you know what it is like trying to get the doc to pay a house call these 
days.
When the machine left here, it was running XP Home, but returned with XP 
Professional in the saddle.  My screen reader is JFW5.10.
My major problem is that when I open an email, before it starts to read the 
message, Jaws reads the contents of the menu bar:  that is: 
file--edit--help--forward--reply etc.  Something must be turned on, but 
being a computer clutz, I haven't the remotest idea what it can be.
Also Jaws keeps saying start and it only seems to read part of the message 
if it is over more than a few lines in length.
