Harvey,

John may be right, but you may also want to check for some application that 
needs your immediate attention (such as an anti-virus program, or Windows 
Update).  These kinds of programs open windows that show up either behind or 
on top of the things you expect to see, and they can totally disrupt the way 
Jaws reads items in the system tray.  You might also check your taskbar 
settings to make sure you didn't inadvertently activate the quick launch 
bar.  As soon as you deal with the offending application and close it, the 
problem will go away.  I've had this happen on several occasions, and it's 
enough to drive you nuts until you figure out what's happening.

Steve
