I might also add that my answer to the question was the correct one and 
quite litterally, this has nothing to do with jaws.  Now, for another path, 
if you want to go through the trouble, you can make mouse over links 
disappear all together and other element attributes disappear in two ways. 
You can use a text only user agent that does not support java script or you 
can go through the headache of setting up your security settings not to 
accept java script.  The problem with these two approaches though is that 
you will find that some sites winn not be usable.  One more note on this is 
that if you use an alternative user agent such as mozilla:
http://www.mozilla.org
or netscape or opera:
http://www.operasoftware.com
http://www.netscape.com
you will not hear mouse over links because jaws does not recognize them in 
in any other user agent.
