Hello Kevin,

Yes, ever since I installed IE8 I have frequently had this 
problem. Theirs some basic incompatibility. When the page 
first loads, if you press your left mouse click key on the 
Numpad, you can usually get the page to display and then 
work with it as normal.

Additionally, you may find that this happens less often if 
you go to Tools, Compatability Settings and in their check 
on "Display all sites in compatibility mode" (or words to 
that effect).

HTH,
John.

JAWS


Hi all,

I'm running Jaws 11 on a Windows 7 Home Premium Sony Vio 
laptop. Until
today Jaws interacted without any issues with both Internet 
Explorer 8
and Firefox. However Jaws is now only reading "edit" when I 
open
Internet Explorer. The cursor keys produce no result and, 
when I type
an address into the address bar, the site opens but Jaws 
will only
announce "RNIB" or whatever site I'm in, I.E. it won't 
navigate around
the site. When Jaws is turned off my sighted wife can use 
Internet
Explorer, no problem. Firefox is also working fine (I'm 
using it to
write this message).

In desperation I reset Internet Explorer to its default 
settings,
however I'm still not able to navigate using Internet 
Explorer and
Jaws.

I've run Superantispyware which has detected no issues.

I'm at a loss to know what to do. Can anyone help please?

Many thanks,

Kevin
