The only problem I have consistently is that IE stops responding, this problem
seems to have increased in frequency, but I doubt that this is cause by WE. I
use email constantly all day and I never have a problem.

Brian, Like you I have been a long-time user of WE, unlike you though,
I really do not seem to be experiencing the difficulties with WE. I
would be interested in knowing just what it is that WE no longer does
efficiently. I have for the most part found each subsequent release of
WE to be considerably improved. Oh, there are a few things that I would
like to see it do, but those things I cannot do with NVDA or Narator
either. Just curious as to your issues with WE?
THANKS and Have A Good 1! de
