Well Fire fox and Opera are much more stable than IE, plus a better =
security
browser. DOD stands behind it. But until enough users go that way with
using the product, it will be awhile to get if fully accessible. =20
I am using this with 2 alpha AT products and soon a beta screen reader =
and I
can't wait to see it work with Jaws and or WE. =20
Take care,

And
for a time, I couldn't use ie on my machine until I reformatted it and
reinstalled windows. It was a weird time, because i kept crashing Ie, =
but
firefox would work, but then I couldn't actually read anything on the =
page!
