I switch to echo words.  When doing a Google search in IE, it didn't speak 
anything after typing a word and pressing the space bar.  Although, in MS Word, 
it spoke everything.  So, I switched back to echo characters, and all keys 
echoed correctly.  Then going to the desktop, the keys started echoing 
different letters/numbers again.  Key echo works fine then, for no apparent 
reason, it starts this behavior.

I have un-installed and re-installed Window-Eyes and it still behaves this way. 
 NVDA does not have a problem.  I have also tried another keyboard(not 
wireless).

Hi David:

What happens when you set Window-eyes to echo words instead of
characters.  Do you hear the correct words when your are typing?
