Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype, IE8 JAWS
Doris- So you think that disabling the Skype toolbars is not the same as not installing them in the first place, right? I was not sure what they were used for in the first place and therefore was not sure if I would mess up Skype even by just disabling them. Good to hear that you aren't experiencing any problems by doing so- thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype, IE8 JAWS
Thanks Adi, Doris and Tim. I will try Doris'es advice to uninstall 3.8 and re-install without the toolbars first and see if that helps. If not, guess it will be time to upgrade Skype.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype, IE8 JAWS
Have the same setup and no problems running. Would dump that and any tool bars running in IE, because they do slow the system down even when not opened.
