I had that problem for a long time on some websites, but it hasn't
happened to me in months! When I used to have that problem, it was
generally when I had a tab open (but I wasn't on that tab), and that tab
kept refreshing itself. When it refreshed, Firefox would start to read
it and JAWS would act like I was on that tab, but in fact, I wasn't and
interacting with the screen I thought was in front of me didn't work.
But again, I can't remember the last time I had that problem.
Oddly, tonight my Firefox started crashing, and I realized my Adblock
add-on had been disabled.

I am finding that Firefox 40 keeps switching from one open tab to another
without me doing anything but reading a page. It’s quite annoying. It also
takes a very long time to load some web pages.
Is anyone else finding Firefox switching tabs on its own?
Thanks,

Yes, Have had this problem for several days. Firefox keeps crashing and has
to restart. Control-l let me type one web address, but when I tried
control-l for another address, it wouldn't work.

Subject: Firefox 40 question
Hello, everyone.
Typically, with Firefox, I use the control L command, after which I can
paste a web site address into the edit box, and hit enter. I'm then able to
open The web site from that point.
However, I'm finding that the control L command no longer works with
Firefox 40.
Has anyone noticed this change, and are there good work-arounds?
I have gotten to the point where I actually prefer Firefox to Internet
Explorer for accessing and navigating web sites, so this apparent change in
Firefox behavior is somewhat disconcerting.
I'm using Jaws 16 and Windows 7 here.
Thank you.
