I must say that running WE 8.3 on a win 7 64 bit machine I have very few
lockups or loss of speech.
Where I continue to have problems is with Web browsing where WE does not
recognize links and where WE says it is a link and there is no way to
open it. Of course not being able to review the web page with the mouse
keys makes web browsing much less efficient. I am of the opinion that
GW places low priority on Web browsing.

Hi:
The mouse support in the newest version of NVDA has improved.
There are two types of mouse support, and I find that one of them
always seems to work no matter which application I am in.

But NVDA still has lousy mouse support. Window eyes still shines in that
area, or at least it does in win7 and xp; can't speak for windows 8 as I
have not tried it yet.

Subject: Re: fed up with lockups
I am experiencing the same frustrating issue and I find myself using the
free opposition more and more. Already on my laptop I am only using the free
opposition. In fact, it is only the Window-Eyes apps that act as golden
handcuffs tying me to Window-Eyes, otherwise I would have moved over to the
free opposition some time ago already. As more and more addons become
available for the free opposition, I can see that happening in the not too
distant future, unless Window-Eyes becomes substantially more stable.
Honestly, they can no longer make the claim of "rock solid stability".
I have been a loyal Window-Eyes user ever since it saw the light of day in
the early '90s, but I am more than casually looking at alternatives now.
I have yet to see the free opposition crash or lose speech. That is what I
would call "rock solid stability".
But the first prize would be that Window-Eyes becomes the good, reliable
program it used to be.
Kind regards

I've noticed that more and more Windoweyes seems to be locking up in
various programs. I'll either alt-tab too quickly away from a screen or for
no identifiable reason, WE using Windows-7 locks up and the only way to get
it back is to turn off my computer. Perhaps it's the complexity of
Windows-7, but I don't rmemeber this behavior being nearly as frequent under
XP.
I'm fed up and about ready to go to "the dark side" to see if that
program is any better.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
