"colon.. colon" in Advanced dialog is not heard now in 8u60b20. Vivek, seems that you have already fixed an issue mentioned in description of this issue. But problem described in my prev comment is still reproducible

One more thing: In Java control panel -> Network settings -> Advanced separator for bypassed address (Use semicolon (;) for bypass entries - as mentioned in last label in this dialog) is not pronounced by JAWS 15 I have just tested it with 8u60b20 on Win 7.
