Hi  Damon 
I am still  with  IE6  and JAWS9
IE8  won't work with JAWS9
And I am  given to understand  that HIGHER  VERSIONS OF jaws  WON'T WORK
WITH MY BRAILLE DISPLAY (POWER BRAILLE)
So seems if I want to upgrade  IE6  I must also Upgrade JAWS,  and to
upgrade  JAWS  need to upgrade Braille  display.

Subject: [access-uk] Upgrading to IE8 on my Netbook 

Hi there. 

Just passing this on.

I use XP and have had Internet Explorer 7 on my netbook for ages and
didn't upgrade because I had heard that IE8 and later were too weighty
for the small processor that netbooks have. 

I just want to relate that last week my computer automatically upgraded
itself to IE8 without me asking it to do so but, since then, the
performance has been excellent.

So in conclusion, if you've been holding back on moving up to IE8 as a
netbook user, don't hold back, go for it. 

...Damon

Hi Alan - 6 and 7 are considered to be dodgy when it comes to security
issues. 8 has worked for me ok since upgrading to JFW13, it didn't work
well with JFW9. As of this morning, I have had IE9 thrust on me, and am
hoping there are no conflicts with it and JFW13, but too soon to know
for me. Maybe others can tell you if JFW11 works ok with either IE8, or
if indeed it's compatible with IE9. -
