And if it is a popup blocker problem try hitting shift-enter on the links that won't open and see if that helps. Hth.

The conclusion was that the pop-up blocker would not allow links to execute that had a pop-up associated to open. Check enter tools alt+to and arrow down to the pop-up blocker and disable it and then try to see if the links will execute. Hope that works.

Just so you know, I am still running JFW 5.1 on my computer, and it was working wonderfully for quite some time. However, I'm wondering if it's not an Internet Explorer problem rather than JAWS. Lately, I've gone to different web sites and have begun having problems accessing links using the "Enter" or the "Space Bar." I've generally always been able to access links in this way, but now what happens is that it tries going there but rather than going to the link, it gives me a different kind of loud click and then just stays where I left off, so it ends up looking like it didn't do anything or go anywhere and just stays there until you try clicking on another link. Now, some of these links can be accessed by using my JAWS cursor and clicking the left mouse button key, but I don't want to have to keep doing that all the time. I'm sure it has something to do with my computer because when I go to these websites on other computers, things seem to go normally, as expected. I did try checking for the obvious viruses and spyware. I also tried repairing JAWS thinking it could be an MSAA thing. It's happening more with more lengths. Thanks again! Jim
