Hi: I too find some problems that have been mentioned by others so havent posted about them much. WE 9.1 is better than WE 8.4 sometimes, sometimes not. Often, when I go to a web page and try and do something quickly WE will lock up, or the browser or something will lock up. No keystrokes for the most part will work. I can alt-tab around and hear something sometimes but it makes little sense until I turn on narrator and then can usually either close the browser or otherwise get speech and keyboard back. Sometimes just turning on narrator and navigating around will bring back windoweyes without doing anything else. Inconsistency is the keyword here making documenting the problem problematic. These lockups also seem to happen in Outlook if I open a message and try and navigate too quickly. The mouse, or the read screen, will sometimes read the message but the arrow keys, tab and other keyboard keys do nothing. I have to ReBoot, think I had a ReStart of WE work once don't remember. But usually both problems seemingly occur when I am in a hurry and more and more seems a problem related to try and do something before WE is ready - perhaps, mabey, er could be? In outlook the only thing I heear in the dead messages is that the first one is usually Plain Text - don't know if that helps or if it is even relevant since I have not tracked these problems in any detail. All messages, plain text or not after that are locked until I ReBoot. So, lately, I open the browser or Outlook Messages and wait until I hear WE reading freely then continue. Again, inconsistency makes it difficult to nail down the exact cause and, since I am usually in a hurry when it happens, I have no better details than mentioned above. Anyway, these are my thoughts on these types of problems. Try and wait to hear we read how many links are on a page or on a Outlook message or other information before trying to hit any keys and see if that helps with the dead lockups. If it does post up so the AI Squared team has something to narrow the problem parameters.

I'm just curious why we is having so many problems when browsing the web losing speech, not being able to navigate on many pages while trying with other screen readers have very little or no trouble at all. I really hate to say this as I've been a we user since the beginning on win 95 I'm finding myself having to use other resources more and more often to do some of the simple things on pages I always visited before to get my research done. I am having this happen using ie on my desk top as well as my laptop both running win 7 x 64 systems with all the latest windows updates. :( Am I the only one running in to this type of behavior? I'd like to send in the web pages for you to look at but often we is so unresponsive it makes it hard to get this information to you. At any rate here is hoping we can get back to its former magnificence and stability. _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
