Hi: That indicates that something in WindowEyes is calling out from time to time and could indeed be a source of problems if it relies on a return message from the Web Resource it is trying to access via various http requests or even web services accessed using other protocols. Calling home is a bad idea except in very few cases in case of internet problems or dropped packets or a bunch of other things that could go wrong and end up either returning nothing or junk. This is the first I have heard of this senario but could be related to loss of speech and computer lockups if a non response or a junk response is encountered by the calling program, WindowEyes in this case. Your test against the firewall was a good example of one of these cases but there are many more that would be much harder to track and something AISquared might look at since it is within their control. Good Heads Up! Rick USA

I agree with you. Not everybody has the same issues. For example, I have problems in Window-Eyes where a message comes up saying Window-Eyes has not responding. I restart Window-Eyes, and I get an error report to AI Squared with steps of when it happened. I have since solved the problem, by putting Window-Eyes through the firewall. When I allow Window-Eyes through the firewall, It is able to run just fine as it is allowing certain components that are blocked. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Huber via Talk Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2015 11:07 AM To: Brice Mijares; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: the on going saga of losing speech Hi Brice: If you are talking about Window-eyes losing speech in Internet Explorer, I have tried it with NVDA and I still lose speech, which would indicate that it is not a Window-eyes problem. If Window-eyes is losing speech in other applications, the I think that the problem is hard to track down, because not everybody is experiencing the same problem, and there are so many possible hardware and software configurations that one would have to test in order to find what's causing the problem, that it would be like finding a needle in a haystack. I understand that this issue is frustrating, but perhaps if you could document one scenario in which a crash took place and what you did to get to that point, it would help Aisquared to solve the problem.
