I, too experience this problem, but in my case, it's with Jaws 14 on my home
PC.
And, to make things frustrating, it has only started happening within the
last 2 weeks or so.
Any ideas for a fix or work-around would be appreciated.

You can get an external numpad that can plug in to your laptop. For all I

No.
It won't work in files when using the virtual cursor. Also, be aware that
list navigation and some other features are changed a bit by this
'tethering' (as it is sometimes known). The keystroke has been around in
JAWS for several years. Be careful that you don't accidentally turn it on.
Rick,
Thanks. So why does an ISP do this, or in other words, what
function does it serve? Also, it doesn't seem to happen to
all threads and seems more recent.
