This is not new for me.
For a long time, through several versions of JAWS, I’ve always needed to alt-tab into the update dialog after selecting “check for updates”
I’ve not worried about it too much, since I figured FS were aware of it and would fix it if they could.

Hrmmm, I tried it with the desktop focused and did have to alt+tab, then tried it again with Firefox focused (which was the case last night when I tried this) and did not.
