Hi Mike: I too get that from time to time on the Yahoo Finance sites and
other sites.
It sounds like the menu bar is automatically opening.
Sometimes there is a roll over on a page that might do this, don't know.
Sometimes I can just tab out of it, sometimes escape key will work and
sometimes I have to close the page and try again.
Like you, sometimes trying to route the mouse is useless with WindowEyes.
I don't know if this is WindowEyes using an active cursor to read things
when it should use a passive cursor or mouse or something else but I have
gotten this allot in the past but not so much lately after mucking with
WindowEyes settings allthough I still get it off and on.
I use to get this problem in non Internet Explorer programs as well so think
it is local to WindowEyes and I don't remember getting it when I sometimes
use jaws but since I don't use it all the time not sure if it would happen
in other screen readers.
Perhaps one of the AISquared folks will have some suggestions.
Post up the webpage where this happens most frequently so others, and the
AISquared staff can try to duplicate the problem.

Subject: On going problem with WE and IE



Hello Everyone

I am using WE 9.3 on a Win 7 64 machine with Ie 11. When I use the 
numeric pad I hear,

Back, forward, drag to task bar,show address bar Etc.  Have I 
inadvertently changed something and how can I get rid of all of this?

I have tried insert numpad plus and WE tells me

unable to root pointer to window


With thanks

Mike.
