[access-uk] Re: Strange?

Hi Chris.

I have, actually, been using the computer for over five years and I am aware of 
setting up the computer so that everything is like Windows 98 but I prefer the 
other layout as you use fewer keystrokes, for example windows key c for control 
panel - but Brian's computer is set up exactly the same and yet his control 
panel works correctly is it anything to do with which jaws layout I am using?  
I usually set it to laptop layout which seems logical - I believe if I use 
classic then favourites in internet explorer doesn't show up.

As for the laptop staying online now I really cannot understand that but am 
grateful for it.

I seem, also, to have been slightly premature as once and only once I could 
link onto something in an email.
I can link onto addresses it's links in websites that are included in emails 
that won't work.

Hope all of this makes sense.

Mandy.

  Mandy, let's sort your internet connection out before we can help you with 
your strange control panel thing. Personally I know what it is, but as you're a 
beginner I don't want to give you too much, if you see what I mean. I could, if 
you want though, e-mail you privately with instructions on how to change the 
appearance, so that Control Panel, as well as My Computer/Windows Explorer, 
appears and functions like that of Windows 95/98? Just trying to help.

    Hi Chris.

    Yes this also comes under the heading of strange because I never used to 
have a problem with Outlook Express - it is really bugging me why does there 
always have to be a problem?

    Not only that:  if I go to control panel and want, say, add/remove, the 
letter a doesn't do it which is also annoying I just wish everything would work 
properly for just even a short while.

    At least internet connection doesn't appear to be a problem now perhaps I 
should just be thankful for small mercies?

    Mandy.

      Mandy, you're saying that you've set your e-mails to HTML, yet you can't 
click on links? It's just I don't have any problems doing this using Outlook 
Express 6 and JAWS 8.0.423 demo.

        Hi All.

        Having spent the weekend emailing this list and boring everybody rigid 
about my router problems everything now seems to be working fine for no 
apparent reason so thanks for help and I've saved relevant advice and will take 
appropriate action if it happens again.

        Apparently Virgin Media do provide a router but don't know what kind of 
quality it is or whether they would set it up for us.

        Now I am still plagued by this problem of not being able to link onto 
things in emails - I removed and reinstalled Jaws but no good and I don't think 
there are viruses on here - is it worth using one of the repair Outlook Express 
options you find if you search Google or is that risky?  I saw a link about 
|Outlook Express 7 but then could only find 6 which I already have.
        Or is it worth uninstalling Outlook Express from the Windows XP disk 
and seeing if that makes a difference?

        Mandy.
