Hi Marius and list, It's worth noting, at least with my version of Jaws 10, that when you tab down the list of general settings, when it gets to the visual style of the window, all Jaws says is, Skype radio button checked 2 of 2. You have to arrow up once, and it says classic. It gives you no indication as to what that setting is, and had Marius not just told me, I would have never known. Hope this made sense. Jack

You need to activate the classic view in Skype. Do the following: Go to the Tools menu by pressing Alt+T, then press O to get to the Options dialog. You should now be in the General settings dialog. Press Tab until you get to the option called Visual Style of the Window. You'll find two radio buttons: one for Skype, and one for Classic Windows. Make sure that Classic Windows is selected, press Tab until you get to the Save button, and press Enter or the space bar. Next, you need to make sure that Extended Keyboard Navigation is checked. Go to the Tools menu again with Alt+T, and find the Accessibility submenu. Open it, and find the option for Extended Keyboard Navigation. If JAWS doesn't say "checked", press Enter to check it. Hope this helps.
