I managed to test this release with JAWS 10, 11, and 12 before sending it out. I can't reproduce the problem you're describing. If you installed the update and did not restart JAWS, try that once, because the update includes a new window reclassing in skype.jcf, and some JAWS versions have been known not to honor those until the next JAWS restart. The window reclass is what fixes the combo box issue in this update. Also be waware that some combo boxes, such as Gender, have a blank option tat the top which will say nothing when you arrow to it.

I'm still experiencing problems with selecting choices in combo boxes though. I press the space bar in a combo box to open it, but pressing the up/down arrows produces no result. When I use the "Say Current Line" command (JAWSKey+UpArrow), JAWS still reads the last selection. I know however that the selection was changed, because if I press JAWSKey+UpArrow twice to have JAWS spell it out, the new selection is spelled out. Any suggestions? I'm using JAWS 11.0, script revision 50b (version 577), Skype 5.1, and Windows 7 Home Premium. Hope this makes sense.
