Things are being "read" out loud with the update - like "Firefox has new window." How do I stop this???
With the latest version of Firefox, and the previous beta version (3.6, I think), my MacBook is "reading" everything out loud - for example, when I go to my bookmarks, if I go to "shopping," I hear "shopping, submenu." If I then highlight Amazon, I hear "Amazon," and so on. And it is always saying "Firefox has new window" whenever I go to a different tab. Since this never happened before the most recent Firefox beta, and continues with Firefox 4, and since I haven't been able to make it stop via System Preferences, I'm assuming it has something to do with the Firefox browser. Help!
