Hi mike
Just curious as to why you don't use initial letter navigation if you are looking for speed. i.e, s for skype once on the desktop and q for quit to unload the application once you are there? Certainly saves tabbing and arrowing up and down.

Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] how do you shut down Skype without a reboot? Re shutting down Skype with key strokes: I use window key m which minimizes all running apps and puts me on the desk top then I tab twice to the task bar and then right arrow until I hear Skype then I either use the windows app key or right mouse click arrow down until I hear quit Skype and hit enter wait about 5 seconds and it unloads I know this may sound like a lot of key strokes but it never fails and once learned is very fast less than ten seconds to Skype closed and out of it thanks to the others who shared their different ways, I just learned a few more key strokes to add to the millions every blind person already knows! LOL If keystrokes were dollars, those of us who are blind would have the financial markets cornered!

If using windows+b, my impression is that pressing enter or space does not open the context menu, so you'll have to use applications instead. Bye!
