Thanks for looking into this. I disabled all the add ons that had conduit
listed, all of them associated with zone alarm. However, conduit search
still appears as my home page along with Google when I open IE9.

Thanks so much. That worked for me too after I first disabled all add ons
with conduit in their names. Those were all associated with zone alarm (I
have the free edition installed).

Well, low and behold, I think that's it. I didn't turn the mouse pad off,
but rather have made a conscious effort not to rest my wrists on the pc
while typing. Don't I feel like a ninny. I was getting incredibly
frustrated. I'll probably go and disable the mouse pad though.
Thanks again,
If Conduit is still one of your home pages, delete it from there in
Internet Options Home page tab (either the line which it's on, or
character by character).

any longer, which sounds a little weird. If you have the prior version,

If you are using JAWS 13, sleep mode is found in the settings center under
the miscellaneous options. From within your game, press insert+6. I don't
know whether your game is on the web or is a separate application. If it is
a separate application, JAWS will invite you to create a configuration
