Hi Jeffrey.

A few questions, if I may.  Are you using Windows XP Home by any chance,
and how much memory are you using and how fast is your processor?  My
findings with Windows XP Home is that 512 MB of RAM is MINIMUM for JAWS on
the internet, and more RAM would be better.  With a 1.7 GHz Athelon
processor and 512 MB of RAM running Internet Explorer 6, the performance on
my machine is marginal.  JFW 4.50 was much worse with this setup--almost
unusable.  In fact, I rolled back to JFW 4.02 until Freedom Scientific
rolled out JFW 4.51.

If you have a notebook with 512 MB of RAM or less, and a slower processor,
then what you are describing would not surprise me on a page with a large
amount of material on it.
