No.  The WinAmp setting is the same for both versions of JAWS.
I even removed the ad blocker program, but the problem with the vertual PC cursor remains when switching between programs. This does not happen in JAWS 15 but only with 17. I haven't tried 16.

That's sure strange. Is it possible that WinAmp is using the settings file
for IE, rather than its own settings file? That might mean the settings for
your browser carry over to WinAmp, and change things like the virtual
cursor.

When you're in WinAmp with JAWS 17, Press Insert+Q to hear what settings
file is currently active. See if that's different when you're using JAWS 15.

No.  I installed an ad blocker this morning for IE 11.  Now weird things
are happening with JAWS 17 when I open WinAmp.

Not sure I understand. Are you saying that JAWS 17 has an ad blocker built
in? I do understand that different versions of JAWS may indeed have
different behavior, especially since JAWS 17 is still in its infancy.

As an addendum to my previous message, boy! am I glad I still have JAWS
15 on my laptop, as the turning off of the PC cursor is not an issue.
The ad blocker on JAWS 17 is not making me happy with the weird stuff
that it seems to be manifesting.

OK, here's what's happening.  I installed an add blocker today and told
my WinAmp not to manage my external drive.  Those are the changes for
today.
So now when I have WinAmp open and my Thunderbird open, my emails act as
graphics and can be read with the JAWS cursor but not the PC cursor.
For some reason my virtual cursor is being turned off.  When I turn it
back on, I can once again read the messages as normal.
What's up with that?
