The message wasn't blank.   It's just that he put the message in the 
subjectline instead of where it should have gone.  Pam.

Hi: Jonathan, looks like your message was blank.
The fact that WindowEyes can crash the system, lock it up, when no reply is
found from a called method or object is a bug in WindowEyes.
In programming, especially when programming against third party apps, you
put a request for anything in a test block so that if the object or method
does not return an expected value you handle the error and continue
processing.
This is not bad code but a bug in WindowEyes.
Their well may be a way around the quote no response by getting the
information from someplace else or by using some other feature of the third
party program but to lock up the screen reader because of a problem in a
third party program is a bug pure and simple.
I have said this when I analyzed a similar situation for Internet Explorer
11, your fault, my fault, nobodys fault just fix it AI Squared.
That means testing the objects and methods within a very short timed bcode
block or a try catch block or something to that effect and handling any
error message or no response situation in the WindowEyes program.
As for no response to AI Squared from third party vendors, you have a legal
department don't you - use them.

Hi Rick, and Jonathan, and everybody.  I personally haven't encountered
those lock-up problems that you guys are experiencing. As an adaptive
technology trainer working on a 6 month contract, ending in March, I have to
say I have been teaching Window-Eyes to sighted staff, and volunteers and
everything works like a charm with no hickups on their end.
