Hi Darren
I'm using IE7. Tried Firefox, but would much prefer IE.

Hi Barbara
Which browser are you using?
I've found that using Internet Explorer, pages that are heavy with Java
Script and the like will load faster as the Explorer Java engine processes the
information so slowly, which will cause page times to appear to load sluggishly.
fireFox does a much better job of loading these types of pages.
Jaws 9 Also works pretty well with Firefox.
Cheers

Subject: [jaws-uk] RAM and the Internet
Hi All
I won't go into the details, but I purchased a desktop Acer some months
ago and somehow between the company I purchased it from and their repairs
company (arrived faulty) half of my 1GB of RAM disappeared. Neither side would
take responsibility, but the company I purchased it off did send me the
replacement RAM to get fitted. I am in the process of arranging to have a
further 1GB of RAM fitted so I will have 1536MB.
My question is: I am having a lot of problems recently using the
Internet. Pages take ages to load and sometimes when I type in an address and
press Enter, I get nothing and have to close down it's taking so long. When I
use the cursors nothing is spoken and pressing the Tab only reads the address I
have typed in. This problem gets worse in the evenings when the computer has
been running most of the day. Is this due to the low RAM (512MB) or could it be
caused by another problem? I have Eset Smart Security running, so don't think
there are any nasties getting in. It's just making any kind of online work
pointless.
If I knew it was the RAM it would be fine as it's getting sorted in the
next few days.
Thanks for any advice.
