one place that w e hangs in firefox is when you press control i to open the
bookmark list. it hangs every time for a few minutes. and when w e does
unhangge it will do it again.
one work around is to turn auto load and browse mode off before you open the
bookmark list. then w e will continue to work.
firefox also gets very sluggish when you do not delete your browseing history.
w e will take several seconds before it will talk when you arrow down a web
page to read it or w e can not be stopped from talking until it finishes
reading the lines you just arrowed down too.
once i deleted the browseing history, cache , forms etc. the sluggisheness
disapeared. i have had to do this about once per month.

Hi Don,
I echo Netbat's suggestion of patience for the page to fully load, but I would
add that my preferred browser is Mozilla Firefox, which I find to be less
unstable in general.
Hth,
Rod

Subject: 9.5.4 very unstable on my HP desktop
I am writing to inquire whether other list members have observed
significant instability with Window-Eyes 9.5.4 especially on web pages.
I have an HP desktop running Windows 10 Creator edition. This
instability was also present with previous windows versions,
specifically 8.1 and Windows 10 anniversary and also 1507. So it may
well be something unique to this machine.
It is almost the norm rather than the exception that Window-eyes will
crash whenever I launch a web page or search for something on a page,
such that I will then have to restart using alt control w. I often have
to launch Jaws 16 to get the job done. Today, for example I went to
wal-mart.com to search for an RCA Galileo Pro. The main Wal-mart page
loaded without incident, and I got to the search box without
difficulty. But as soon as I hit control shift f and typed RCA Galileo
Pro and hit enter, Window-eyes crashed.
Are any of you listers experiencing anything comparable?
Thanks.
Don Roberts
