Some more information and a link to the website would be helpful.

* What version of Jaws
* What is the default language of the OS?
* Are there other languages enabled on the OS?
* Which browser?
* What language codes are set on the page and/or its parts?
* Is the behaviour consistent and replicable?
* If yes, does it happen in other browsers?
