Lennie I think it does have to do with JAWS,, it not only loses focus on the desktop but also at other places.

Hi George,

Yes, the problem does not have to do with Zone Alarm. I have shut it down and the problem still occurred. It is also the same with Jaws 10.

It may be a coincidence, but the problem started after I installed the latest version of Zone Alarm. The desktop was always in focus before the install. I am thinking that it has to do something with the window installation, but I have no idea what to do about it.

I don't think that FS has anything to do with this so I am not considering contacting them.

Hi,

Just for your information, I am currently using the latest version of Jaws 11 and SP home.

I use ZoneAlarm firewall for my firewall protection even though it is not accessible with Jaws. The other day, I upgraded to the latest version of ZoneAlarm.

When I restarted my computer after the install, Jaws no longer reads my desktop . It somehow does not have focus. It was no problem with the previous version of ZoneAlarm.

My wife tells me that she can see the desktop on the monitor and I can route PC cursor to the Jaws cursor and read the desktop icons. I can also press window key+M to bring the desktop into focus.

Is there any settings or changes that I can make to bring the desktop into focus after restarting or rebooting?

By the way, the same thing happens when I Alt+F4 out of a program. The desktop icon should come back into focus, but the same thing happens like a restart. I also tried Jaws 10 with the same results. This may not be a Jaws problem, but it is annoying.

Many thanks in advance for any help to solve my problem. I don't want to have to make an extra key stroke to get the desktop into focus.

Lennie
