I've had this issue with earlier versions of Jaws, but it happens sooner 
and more often with Jaws 13.

another issue I have much more often with Jaws 13 is that I press a key, 
and I hear the key along with Windows or alt+ctrl plus the key. For 
example, I press m and hear Windows+m or alt+ctrl+m, and the computer 
does what it should if I were to hit that key combination, or I press e 
and hear Windows+E or alt+ctrl+e, etc. This tends to happen when I press 
a key too soon after booting up, but it sometimes just happens. I can 
fix it by restarting Jaws, but this can be a challenge, Depending on 
whether I'm dealing with the Windows or alt+ctrl combination and whether 
Jaws is just announcing the additional keys or the computer actually 
thinks the key combinations are being pressed.

Jaws 13 is certainly buggier than usual.
