I'm not familiar with those applications, but I wonder if you're running 
into autoforms mode somehow. If they're using a web browser like front 
end then the virtual cursor may be in effect and autoforms may be in 
play. I'm not running JFW 10 on this system, but you might want to try 
turning that off in your JFW settings and see if that changes your JFW 
behavior.
