User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 (CK-IBM) Firefox/2.0.0.3 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a4pre) Gecko/20070427 Minefield/3.0a4pre While running JAWS, focus to any browser chrome causes the process to terminate. I do not see the same behavior while running Window-Eyes. I can start the latest minefield without JAWS, and tab around the HTML content, but the application will terminate as soon as I tab to the URL/address field. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start JAWS 2. Launch Firefox with either 'firefox -p' or 'firefox -safe-mode' Actual Results: Dialog flashes on screen and Firefox terminates immediately. As noted, this happens for any chrome content, so Firefox can be launched normally ('firefox') and still create the problem. The 'firefox -p' and 'firefox -safe-mode' commands are just the fastest way to reproduce the problem. I am using JAWS 8.0.1177U.

I upgraded to: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a5pre) Gecko/20070502 Minefield/3.0a5pre And still saw this problem (but didn't with FF2) Today, I upgraded JAWS to the latest (8.0.2107U), and the problem no longer occurs. So, I suspect JAWS was doing something that Minefield didn't like, and FF2 had better error recovery?

Really hard to say. We shouldn't crash, I can say that.

This sounds exactly like IAccessible2 mismatch. Since newer versions of JAWS don't cause it, I think they upgraded their IA2 idl and we are in sync again.
