Greetings. 

I am a newbie in terms of my serious usage of iTunes.  I have started to play 
around with the iTunes Music Store, and have searched for things mainly on the 
Web site using Internet Explorer 6 and JFW 7. 

I can conduct a search and even can get results--but I cannot click on or 
download any of those results from the Web.  Instead of presenting something 
I've found as a clickable link, the iTunes site presents it as a graphic.  JFW 
will say, for example: "Graphic Walk the Line by Johnny Cash."  I cannot 
"activate" this graphic, with the virtual JAWS cursor or the PC cursor or the 
classic JAWS cursor, in any way.  I've tried left-clicking and right-clicking 
from the JAWS cursor using the number pad, I've tried hitting ENTER and SPACE 
and SHFT+F10 when the Virtual PC Cursor highlights such a graphic.  No success. 
 Is it necessary for a totally blind person to access the iTunes Store using 
iTunes and a JAWS interface such as the T&T one that Brian Hartgen designed? 

Many thanks to anyone who can give me insight on this.  Right now, I'm still 
trying to register my account with the iTunes Store--something I must do in 
iTunes, and with considerable sighted assistance.  I'm very annoyed about 
this--oh, well (SIGH).  Just another learning experience.
