Hi, yes, I have a similar problem with Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit and Microsoft Internet Explorer 8. For example, if I click start, run then www.google.com , the edit box doesn't seem to work, I need to then go back to the addressbar, re-enter www.google.com and it seems to work. Really annoying. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Misty Dawn Bradley Sent: 02 March 2012 18:05 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] edit fields sometimes not working in internet explorer 8 Hi, I am running Windows XP Home and JAWS 10, and I have the same problem sometimes also.
