I don't use Mozilla, but when I launch iTunes, JAWS 16 will always -- and I mean every time -- quit and reload. Very irritating. I prefer the old method where it says "Not Responding". At least I had some sort of audio feedback, rather than dumb silence.
Windows 7 32-bit and latest JAWS 16 build.

No matter how much your system has under the hood so to speak when everything tries accessing an internet connection which as we all know is probably the slowest component of your computing experience things are going to bog down until programs like Adobe just to name one gets happy and finishes what it has to do. I've noticed even with 8 GB of memory on a couple of systems it can happen that things just take care of business in their own time. The less the memory the more the lag on the system. I know of somebody who has 2 GB of memory on a 32 bit system, trust me there is a lot of spitting and sputtering on that thing before it settles down. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Sent: Friday, September 18, 2015 8:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws stalling Kevin, Would this be right after boot up, or at any time? Sometimes, JAWS was stalling on me shortly after it restarts after log in, and I have discovered that it was because of other items starting up at the same time from the start up options in Task manager. Once I had disabled some of the unnecessary items there, JAWS stopped doing this. This has happened at times other than start up when a program has tried to update itself. The automatic updates for software like Adobe and some others that appear in the start up options can really cause JAWS to go berserk.
