Thanks George. If I have the dongle version, will I have the same activation problem?

Here is an extract from the FAQ in JAWS 6.0 about Activation. "Can I remove the Activation License Code from my computer? Yes. This code can be deleted from a computer, but cannot be moved to a different system. To do this, open the Start menu and go to the JAWS program group. Then, open the Tools submenu and choose Remove Product Activation." If all else fails, call your dealer and explain the situation. Provided you allow a few days, you should be OK.
